Babagana Zulum, governor of Borno
state, came down hard on soldiers manning Damaturu-Maiduguri road in the state
on Monday afternoon.
Zulum was on his way to Jakana, a
community where Boko Haram insurgents struck on Saturday when he ran into a
long queue of vehicles at one of the checkpoints.
The governor, who apparently had
been briefed that the security operatives were extorting people, alighted from
his vehicle and walked straight to where some of the soldiers were.
“I’m going to report all of you
in this unit… nobody can tolerate this. Boko Haram is attacking people and you
are here collecting N1000 per car,” he said.
One of the soldiers tried to calm
the governor down, saying he would look into the case but Zulum fired back,
saying: “But we saw them.”
