Former Minister of Defense, retired General Theophilus Y. Danjuma, has once again called on Nigerians to take responsibility for their own safety, warning that the escalating insecurity across the country cannot be resolved by government efforts alone.

Speaking during an Easter appreciation event in Takum Local Government Area of Taraba State, Danjuma emphasized the need for citizens to adopt self-defense measures as a necessary response to increasing attacks by bandits and terrorists.

“If our people do not stand up and defend themselves, bandits and terrorists will take over our society,” Danjuma cautioned.

He further urged communities to remain vigilant and proactive in securing their environments.

The elder statesman underscored the importance of community readiness, noting that without preparedness and unity, the country risks descending into further chaos.

Beyond his security message, Danjuma also expressed deep appreciation for his staff, partners, and affiliated companies.

He offered special praise to the team at the TY Danjuma Medical Centre, commending their dedication and resilience in delivering essential healthcare services despite challenging circumstances.

The event, as observed by our reporter, served as both a festive celebration and a platform for Danjuma to reinforce his long-standing advocacy for citizen-led security efforts.
