Professor Usman Yusuf, former executive secretary of the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA), has weighed in on the rising insecurity level across Nigeria.
The president of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, since the emergence of his administration, has been vocal about his intentions to end banditry and completely neutralize insecurity across the country.
