The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) calls on Nigerians to remain calm, resolute, and united as the nation confronts temporary challenges being deliberately amplified by a desperate, unpatriotic, and increasingly exposed opposition. Even in the midst of tension and turmoil, one truth remains eternal:<\/p>\n
This too shall pass.<\/p>\n
Nigeria has walked through fire before – recessions, insurgencies, sabotage, political treachery – and each time, we emerged stronger. Today will not be different.<\/p>\n
Acknowledging Recent Developments: Tinubu Is Taking Decisive Action<\/p>\n
Unlike the empty talkers masquerading as statesmen, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is taking concrete, historic steps to secure Nigeria and restore national stability.
\n\u2022 He has declared a State of Emergency on Security – a bold, unprecedented move that signals zero tolerance for terror, sabotage, and criminality.
\n\u2022 He has approved the recruitment of an additional 20,000 new police officers, bringing the total fresh intake under his administration to an extraordinary 50,000 personnel – the single largest security expansion in recent history.<\/p>\n
These are not cosmetic gestures.
\nThese are strategic, far-reaching actions by a President who refuses to surrender one inch of Nigerian territory to terrorists or their political sponsors.<\/p>\n
While the opposition sells fear, President Tinubu delivers capacity.
\nWhile they whine abroad, he strengthens Nigeria at home.<\/p>\n
Security: The Truth the Opposition Is Afraid Of<\/p>\n
The opposition continues to prophesy doom because they are mortally threatened by the breakthroughs being recorded:
\n\u2022 Rescue missions are ongoing.
\n\u2022 Hostile networks are being dismantled.
\n\u2022 Saboteurs are being unmasked.
\n\u2022 Communities are cooperating with security forces like never before.<\/p>\n
Even the recent incidents the opposition danced around as \u201cevidence of failure\u201d have, in fact, revealed the true faces of those sponsoring chaos.
\nHow do terrorists suddenly strike with precision minutes after certain politicians issue \u201cprophecies\u201d of unrest?<\/p>\n
Who feeds bandits with insider intelligence?
\nWho benefits if Nigeria looks ungovernable?<\/p>\n
We know. Nigerians know. And their time is almost up.<\/p>\n
Those praying for Nigeria\u2019s destabilization to justify foreign intervention will meet disappointment and disgrace.<\/p>\n
The Opposition\u2019s New Tactic: Cry Wolf, Invite Outsiders<\/p>\n
Having lost moral currency at home, the opposition now shops for sympathy abroad. They write petitions, sponsor reports, and lobby international bodies with stories of an impending collapse – all in the hope that foreign powers will intervene on their behalf.<\/p>\n
But Nigeria is not a playground for expired politicians.
\nAnd President Tinubu is not an absentee leader.<\/p>\n
He is hands-on, fully engaged, and personally directing the security renaissance sweeping across the nation. Under his watch, Nigeria\u2019s sovereignty is not up for negotiation.<\/p>\n
Not to foreign interests.
\nNot to political merchants.
\nNot to those seeking shortcuts to power.<\/p>\n
Economic Hardship: The Pain of Birth, Not the Pain of Death<\/p>\n
The temporary discomfort Nigerians are experiencing today is the unavoidable price of dismantling decades-old economic sabotage:
\n\u2022 Subsidy cartels have been dethroned.
\n\u2022 FOREX cabals have been disrupted.
\n\u2022 Rent-seeking billionaires have been cut off from government pipelines.<\/p>\n
Their foot soldiers in the opposition amplify the hardship because it is the only political oxygen they have left.<\/p>\n
But Nigerians must not be deceived:
\nThe reforms are already working.<\/p>\n
Agriculture is expanding.
\nRevenue is rising.
\nInvestment confidence is returning.
\nIndustries are waking up.<\/p>\n
Those who destroyed the house have no right to mock the rebuilding.<\/p>\n
Nigeria Will Prevail – The Saboteurs Will Fail<\/p>\n
The Lagos APC assures Nigerians that the storm is temporary, the discomfort is transitional, and the nation\u2019s destiny is firmly in the hands of a capable, courageous, and battle-ready President.<\/p>\n
This too shall pass.
\nThe saboteurs will fail.
\nNigeria will rise stronger than ever.<\/p>\n
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has shown resolve where others fled, courage where others buckled, and leadership where others sought shortcuts. Nigeria is blessed to have a Commander-in-Chief who leads from the front.<\/p>\n
We stand with him.
\nWe stand with Nigeria.
\nWe stand with the unshakable conviction that internal and external forces of darkness will never triumph over the will of the Nigerian people.<\/p>\n
