The Federal Government has claimed it is winning the war
against insurgents in the country, insisting that Nigeria is not a failed
state.
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed made the
claims in an interview with BBC on Wednesday.
Lai Mohammed in comments claimed that the security situation
in the Northeast was worst before the emergence of President Muhammadu Buhari’s
administration in 2015.
He said the terrorists have decided to surrender to the
Nigerian troops following a recent onslaught against them.
“The Nigerian Government is winning the war against
insurgents, the evidence of that is the number of insurgents that are already
surrendering not only with their weapons but with their family,” Lai Mohammed
said.
“This thing takes time. Don’t forget that in 2015, the
entire Northeast was a no go area where schools, markets and hospitals were
closed. It is clearly not what we inherited in 2015”.
