We must treat kidnappers as terrorists – Tinubu

 President Bola Tinubu has condemned the rate of kidnapping
across the country, declaring that people involved must be treated as
terrorists.

Tinubu made this remark on Tuesday at a Ramadan dinner with
members of the Federal judiciary, led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN),
Justice Olukayode Ariwoola.

“We must treat kidnappers as terrorists. They are cowardly,”
the president said.

“They have been degraded. They look for soft targets. They
go to schools and kidnap children and cause disaffection.

“We must treat them equally as terrorists in order to get
rid of them, and I promise you we will get rid of them.”
