separatists<\/a> in the south-east have reduced \u201cconsiderably\u201d., adding that over 30,000 insurgents alongside their families have so far surrendered.<\/p>\n\u201cThe security situation has relatively improved across all parts of the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe threats of the separatists in the south-east and parts of south-south geo-political zones have reduced in traction. Our waters are now calm and we no longer receive reports of daily attacks by pirates.<\/p>\n
