Activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju has called on President Bola Tinubu to deploy the same force used by the Nigerian Armed Forces to halt the failed coup in Benin Republic against terrorist groups in Nigeria. Adeyanju praised Tinubu’s intervention, describing it as a “proud moment” for Nigerians who value democracy and warned that those undermining governance in the Sahel should take notice.
In a statement, Adeyanju said: “The same might displayed in Benin should be applied with even greater resolve to crush the terrorist groups operating within our borders, so that Nigeria can truly lead by example.” He emphasized that the decisive military action should serve as a model for maintaining democratic order in the region.
