Aregbesola Harps on Inter Agencies, Departments, Parastatals Synergy to Curb Insecurity

Aregbesola– Strategic alliance between various agencies and departments of the government is vital in Nigeria’s fight against insecurity, interior minister Rauf Aregbesola has said

Mr Aregbesola Thursday at the Second Ministerial Retreat of his Ministry rehashed the assurance the federal government had given in the past to address the worsening security situation in the country, one showing little signs of slowing.

“It is important for the four agencies to forge strategic alliances with other agencies, especially in light of new security challenges to our facilities and the nation at large”, the minister said while speaking at the event held in Ilorin, the Kwara state capital.

“At the back of our mind, we must never forget, above all things, that our main purpose is to serve the people by strengthening internal security and give all the people resident in the country the peace of mind they deserve”, Mr Aregbesola said.

The event hosted by the Kwara State Governor, Alhaji AdbulRahmanAbdulRazaq, had in attendance dignitaries including a Representative of the Emir of Ilorin, Ibrahim Kolapo Sulu Gambari; the Controller General, Federal Fire Service, CG Ibrahim Liman among others, according to a statement by the spokesperson of the fire service, Ugo Huan.

Virtually all parts of Nigeria are currently battling with one form of insecurity or the other with various crimes going on, largely unabated.

Despite attempts by the Muhammadu Buhari administration to curb the rising criminalities and killings across the country, the nation’s security apparatus appears to be overwhelmed with criminals having a field day killing, maiming and extorting their victims.

The minister at the event acknowledged the extraordinary security crisis Nigeria is facing but assured Nigerians that the Federal Government is “on top of the situation” in tackling the security challenges.

“We are facing unique challenges that will define how we live, moving forward. As a result, there is no shortage of work to be done, or responsibilities to bear. The Federal Government is rising up to the new challenge posed by these attacks”, the official said.

“In order to achieve Mr President’s mandate, there is an urgent need to put in place well thought-out policies and programme that would ensure effectiveness and efficiency toward improving internal security. There is need to determine where we are on the delivery of internal security, the challenges and the limitations. These would enable us develop plans and strategies with timelines for effective service delivery.”

Mr Aregbesola also charged the participants at the retreat to “speak freely and make creative and intelligent contributions which can be critical in providing original solutions and ideas to the problem.”

Also speaking during a paper presentation, the Controller General of Fire service, CGF, Liman Ibrahim Alhaji disclosed the laid down strategies of the service in developing Internal Security.

He highlighted the objectives of the service which is to bring to the barest minimum fire outbreaks in the country.

Further elaborating the laid out strategy of the service he said, “the efforts of the service at ensuring safety of lives and property by putting in place Regulations such as the Fire Policy, Fire safety Code, Standard operating procedures is geared at improving the confidence of Investors.

The theme of the paper he presented is “Improving Nigeria’s Preparedness for Internal Security and Public safety Threats: A case study for a medium Term strategic Plan”.

The CGF also said he has used advocacy as a tool to ensure assets are been protected by engaging State Governors on the need to equip the Fire Services in their various states.

He said the Service have ensured that its personnel are well trained so as to protect lives and property for an accelerated developed Nation.

The retreat will continue on Friday through Saturday, with the theme “Developing Internal Security and Public Safety towards a Five-year Strategic Plan for Accelerated National Development.”

At the end, there will be a production of a Five Years Strategic Plan for the Interior Ministry and its agencies, organizers said.

Oleksandr Usyk Defeats Tyson Fury Again, Solidifies Legacy Among Boxing Greats

Ukrainian boxing sensation Oleksandr Usyk retained his heavyweight championship titles and cemented his place in boxing history with a unanimous decision victory over Britain’s Tyson Fury in their rematch on Saturday night.

The judges scored the bout 116-112 in Usyk’s favor across the board, marking his second consecutive win over Fury. This victory extended Usyk’s flawless professional record to 23-0, with 14 knockouts, adding another chapter to a career already highlighted by Olympic gold and an undisputed cruiserweight championship.

A Masterclass Performance

Usyk, 37, showcased his signature precision and relentless pace, repeatedly catching Fury with clean left hooks and dominating the latter stages of the fight. Fury, at 6ft 9in (206cm) and weighing a career-high 281 pounds, attempted to impose his physicality but was unable to break Usyk’s composure.

The fight, held in Saudi Arabia, saw Usyk wearing traditional Cossack attire during his entrance, while Fury entered the arena dressed in a festive Santa-inspired robe to Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”

The early rounds were competitive, with Fury landing powerful jabs and body shots. However, Usyk’s endurance and tactical brilliance began to shine in the middle rounds. The Ukrainian landed sharp combinations and dictated the tempo, including a stunning uppercut in the final round that left little doubt about the outcome.

“I thought I’ve won both fights,” Fury said post-match, sporting a bruised right eye. “But I’ll always believe until the day I die that I won that fight.”

A Legacy Sealed

Usyk’s victory solidified his standing as one of the greatest heavyweights in history. Already the first undisputed heavyweight of the four-belt era, Usyk joins the ranks of legends like Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, and Mike Tyson.

The bout, reported to have a prize purse of $190 million, also underscored Saudi Arabia’s growing influence in global sports. Usyk, who served briefly as a soldier during Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, celebrated his victory by hoisting a symbolic sabre belonging to Ukrainian nationalist hero Ivan Mazepa.

Fury’s Uncertain Future

The defeat leaves Fury’s future in doubt. Once unbeaten across 35 fights, Fury now stands at 34-2-1. His attempt to reclaim glory after a brief retirement in 2022 has been marred by back-to-back losses to Usyk.

Usyk, on the other hand, continues to add to his already remarkable resume, leaving fans and critics alike in awe of his technical skill, resilience, and determination. As the heavyweight division looks ahead, Usyk’s reign appears unshakable, and his place among boxing’s all-time greats is firmly secured.
