Lead pastor of Kingsways International Christian Centre (KICC), Matthew Ashimolowo, on Thursday urged Nigerians to support President Bola Tinubu in tackling the country’s security challenges.
He praised the president’s commitment to improving security but emphasized that citizen support is crucial for success. Ashimolowo made the comments during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily.
The clergyman stressed that Nigerians must back government efforts to combat banditry, terrorism, and other criminal activities.
He said the nation needs a turnaround and called on every citizen to help raise security standards, tap into national talent, and promote Nigeria’s global image.
“Every African country admire Nigeria. We are tough, strong, fearless, and bold. With leadership determined to make a difference, Nigerians should stand behind the president and support his efforts,” he said.
Ashimolowo also advised that all National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members should receive training to assist in security operations.
He believes that equipping NYSC members with basic security knowledge and training could help strengthen community protection and serve as an additional support system for security agencies.
Ashimolowo highlighted the strength and resilience of Nigerian youths, describing them as courageous, resourceful, and capable of contributing meaningfully to national safety if properly guided.
On the topic of state police, he warned that it could be misused as a political tool, adding, “State police may be useful but could become a personal army used to intimidate and terrorize others.”
