“Without peace and security, we do not have a nation. The people who put their lives to make sure that our families, properties, and nation are safe and stable are our security agencies”, the Head of State said.

However, he noted that the security agencies would only be supported if they acted per the law.

The President at the same time condemned acts to undermine, intimidate and demean the security forces, adding that the authorities deserved all the support they could get from the nation.
