Nigerian singer Harrison Tare Okiri, better known by his stage name Harrysong, has urged President Bola Tinubu to improve security personnel’s pay nationwide in order to combat insecurity.
He reportedly voiced his concerns about the existing pay and benefits of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Police, and other security units in a message he shared on Instagram.
He claimed that the compensation for people who put their lives in danger every day to defend the nation is still insufficient.
Increasing their wellbeing, according to Harrysong, would inspire police and fortify the battle against crime.
He called on the government to make front-line workers’ jobs more fulfilling.
“TO MR. PRESIDENT,” he wrote. WANT TO END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA 🌳🇬? Start by raising the pay and benefits for members of the armed services. The salaries of the army, navy, air force, and Nigerian police force are too cheap and deplorable; they should be worth dying for. Please, please, please raise their pay.
In a related development, Yul Edochie, a Nollywood actor, criticized President Bola Tinubu for the country’s current situation.
According to reports, Nigerians have been living in constant fear as a result of the current wave of kidnappings that have occurred around the nation.
