While giving the traditional chiefs in Abuja the keys to a Nissan Semi SUV, Wike noted that the government was making an effort to make it easier for them to go around.

The Minister said, “Part of that is mobility. I can’t see how traditional rulers will be boarding taxis or entering public transportation. That is unacceptable.

“President Bola Tinubu has directed that that should not be allowed to continue. He has asked that we do everything possible to make it convenient and easy for you to do your assignment.”

Every stakeholder, including traditional leaders, has a part to play in President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed agenda, according to Wike.

He added, “You know your communities better than anybody; you know the people within your communities, so you will be able to identify those who look like strangers.

“No agency will perform its function without the support of traditional rulers, and we believe that we must partner together to achieve the fight against insecurity.

“So, today, we are going to hand over 10 vehicles to you to please help in supporting the government to fight insecurity in your domain. Be sure that we are going to work together.

“If we don’t work together, we will not achieve results because everybody is important in the fight against insecurity.”
