The Presidency has described the Nigeria-United States security joint collaboration as key to end terrorism and banditry in the country.
Special Adviser to the President on Media and Public Communication, Sunday Dare, made this statement on Tuesday during an X Space discussion.
Dare said intelligence sharing, security collaboration and joint counter-terrorism operations between both countries remain critical to dismantling insurgent groups and criminal networks operating within the region.
According to him, the administration of President Bola Tinubu remains focused on restoring peace across the country, protecting lives and property, and safeguarding Nigeria’s territorial integrity against internal and external threats.
He noted that the growing collaboration between Nigeria and the United States reflects a shared determination to tackle security challenges through coordinated action, capacity building and intelligence-driven operations. NigerianAgricultural Insurance
Dare also raised concerns over the increasing spread of misinformation and fake news on digital platforms, warning that false narratives could undermine national security and public confidence.
He cautioned that unverified information has the potential to fuel social tensions, incite unrest and create unnecessary panic among citizens.
“The deliberate spread of false information can create unnecessary panic, provoke disorder, and threaten national cohesion. Nigerians must remain vigilant and avoid becoming tools in the dissemination of content capable of destabilizing the country,” he said.
