President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday assured Nigerians that the end of the Boko Haram sect and terrorism in Nigeria is in sight.
Buhari gave the assurance in a statement made available to journalists by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu.
The President was reacting to latest terrorist attacks in Jos, Kano, and Zaria.
The statement quoted the President as saying that he was convinced of his position because of the recent positive developments in the nation’s security forces.
He therefore urged Nigerians to remain security conscious and be swift in reporting suspicious movements around them to security agents.
“The President is convinced that with recent increase in troops deployment, improvements in the supply of arms and equipment to the military, as well as the ongoing effort to mobilise greater international cooperation and support, the end of Boko Haram and terrorism in Nigeria is in sight.
“He calls on Nigerians to remain vigilant and report any suspicious persons to security agents as his administration continues to give the highest possible priority to eradicating Boko Haram and ensuring greater security of lives and property across the country,” the statement read in part.
Buhari consoled all Nigerians who lost relatives in the latest terrorist atrocities in Jos, Kano, and Zaria, as well as those who were injured in the attacks.
He, however, urged all Nigerians not to be unduly disheartened by what he called the seeming resurgence of terrorist attacks and atrocities in the country.
He said his administration remained committed to overcoming the challenges of insecurity, terrorism and insurgency as quickly as possible.
The statement added, “Already, the intensified onslaught by the military on terrorists’ strongholds has led to significant seizures of weapons and vehicles, a blockage of their sources of arms and ammunition, and a decimation of their fighting men.
“President Buhari assures Nigerians of the ability and readiness of the country’s armed forces and security agencies to contain the frantic resort by the terrorists to attacks on soft targets such as crowds and places of worship.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteChibok girls never existed because your relative was not among. Just wait and see. The difference between PMB and GEJ is that one is a drunker the other is not. one is corrupt and also a thief which are never the same in his own concept while the other is not. one choose to en-mass public wealth while the other choose to serve only. One choose to be regional president while the other is national. one cannot control his wife while the other one's wife is not first lady but president's wife. The difference is endless. If i must tell you, the era of election rigging has gone, therefore if it is a crime that the north born uncountable children then it is a pride that they have uncountable votes. Democracy must stay.....game of number.
DeleteOga Mr presido if we dont have Chibok girls in Ur 100days in ofce den you have failed nigerians. over 600 Northerners have died so fa since u came in I hope u ar not Promisory Note Expert....
ReplyDeletehow can a dude of close to 90yrs ,without evidence of basic education be ruling a nation of engineers, professors, doctors , surgeons, IT gurus, bankers , security forces, and about 180million assorted nigerians in this modern age...it is possible ., if the peeps are docile and hungry
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha ha Robocop I am dead sure it is butter your brain is made of. Your 'well educated" brother you claim to have Ph.D. could do nothing for almost 6years and walked away, you are expecting the over 90years to do the job for you. Receive punishment from God.idot.
DeletePlease Oga boko haram You better take back all those boko haram commanders you sent to Anambra state to recruit more fighters and spread your killing instinct. Bloody baboon.
ReplyDeleteYes,Boko haram will soon come to an end because the attacks that are intensified now is just to create a smoke screen and make it look as if you have nothing to do with it. Very soon you'll command them to ceasefire and it would look as if you fought them to a halt. We're watching!
