The Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Most Rev. Matthew Hassan Kukah, has expressed confidence that efforts to restore security and normalcy across Nigeria are “in very good hands” following the swearing-in of General Christopher Musa (rtd) as Minister of Defence.
Speaking to journalists at the State House after witnessing Thursday’s ceremony, Bishop Kukah said the blend of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s resolve and General Musa’s experience offers renewed hope for stabilising the country.
“We just need restoration of normalcy in this country by any means possible, and I think that this job is in very good hands. It does seem very clear that the President wants to reposition issues of security, and I think the situation is in very good hands”, he declared.
Kukah, who noted that he attended the event in dual capacity, representing the Sultan of Sokoto and as a son of Southern Kaduna like the new minister, conveyed the Sultan’s greetings and goodwill to General Musa.
Responding to a question on the minister’s position during his Senate screening, where Musa had said terrorists require more punitive measures, Bishop Kukah said there is broad agreement on the urgency and seriousness needed to confront insecurity.
“We are on all fours as far as that is concerned. Rain, thunder, sunshine, whatever it takes to get this mess under control. These guys need to be flushed out. Normalcy needs to return to our country. Laughter and joy have to come back to Nigeria within the shortest time possible”, he said.
