Borno Governor, Babagana Zulum, has assured that he was in
good shape despite the Baga attack on his convoy.
A barrage of gunshots rented the air as the governor visited
Baga town in Kukawa Local Government on Wednesday.
Zulum said he remains unshaken and will continue to perform
his duties without fear.
He spoke on Saturday through his spokesman,
Isa Gusau.
“The governor remains unfazed, unshaken. The well-being of
Borno people are his top priority and he will continue to work in their best
favour”, Gusau said.
Zulum thanked all Nigerians for their solidarity and
prayers.
He appealed to citizens to be security conscious and to
continue to adhere to all COVID-19 safety protocols.
Meanwhile, the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar Ibn Umar Elkanemi,
has declared that leaders and citizens of the state are not safe.
The monarch spoke at the weekend when he paid Sallah homage
to Zulum at the Government House, Maiduguri.
Shehu said: “Your Excellency, we are not happy about what
happened in Baga. It is very unfortunate and a great pity. If the convoy of the
Chief Security Officer of the state could be attacked, then wallahi nobody is
safe.”
On the COVID-19 pandemic, he advised Borno citizens to
continue to adhere strictly to all protocols announced by health experts.
Shehu, however, lamented on the high rate of incessant
tree-cutting in the state.
He warned of environmental problems and urged the
authorities to stop the trend.
Zulum expressed gratitude for the visit and assured of
government’s readiness to address issues raised.
