“Apply same force used in Benin Republic against terrorists” – Activist tells Tinubu

An activist, Deji Adeyanju, has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Nigerian armed forces for their role in halting the attempted coup in the Republic of Benin.

Adeyanju said the intervention showed the strength of Nigeria’s commitment to democracy and the dangers of military rule.

He said the action should serve as a clear warning to individuals and groups plotting to undermine democratic systems in the Sahel region.

The activist urged the federal government to deploy the same level of force used in Benin to crush terrorist groups operating within Nigeria.

“The same might displayed in Benin should be applied with even greater resolve to crush the terrorist groups operating within our borders, so that Nigeria can truly lead by example,” he stated.
