El-Rufai who answered questions on security stated that banditry, terrorism, separatism, and oil theft require a new approach including increasing the number of security operatives.

He said: “The numbers must change and the Bola Tinubu administration already has a blueprint which is embedded in our action plan to address this. We will scale up the numbers of the armed forces. We’ll ramp up not only the numbers but the training and the equipment.”

Alake, on his part, answered questions on how to curb oil theft in six months and how to lift Nigerians out of poverty if elected.
