So with the recent military operations launched in various parts of the country, as well as the establishment of a new national security agency, I suggested some very important initiatives that could be implemented to Improve security.

I suggested a new intelligence-gathering system that has to be put in place in order to identify and track criminal networks, as well as more rigorous border control measures. I also suggested the deployment of more troops to various states in order to bolster security.

I also spoke about the need to address the underlying issues that have led to the current security crisis. Mentioning the importance of tackling poverty and unemployment, as well as improving access to education, health care, and basic infrastructure.

Overall, President Buhari expressed his determination to tackle the insecurity in Nigeria and ensure the safety of citizens. He committed to continuing to take the necessary steps to strengthen security and maintain peace throughout the country.

Discussion On Corruption

The topic of corruption was a major point of conversation during the meeting with President Buhari. The President first expressed his concern over the endemic nature of corruption in Nigeria and noted that it is not something that can be eradicated overnight.

He discussed his efforts to combat corruption, including setting up a committee on financial crimes, tightening up regulations, and bringing in outside support to investigate cases of corruption. He also noted that he has been working with the National Assembly to pass legislation that will improve transparency and strengthen the criminal justice system.

So, I suggested to Mr. President that he oughts to urge all Nigerians to take a stance against corruption, stating that everyone needs to do their part to make a difference. I emphasized the importance of changing attitudes towards corruption, noting that it must become socially unacceptable for real progress to be made.

While the government is doing its best to combat corruption, it is important for us the citizens to also participate in fighting against it by not taking part in any form of corruption or bribery.

Overall, the discussion around corruption was an important one and it showed the President's commitment to tackling this problem head-on. It is clear that the Nigerian government is taking steps to address the issue and is working towards creating a better future for all Nigerians.

Conclusion
