President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday gave kudos to his administration for the return of a “calmer atmosphere” to parts of the Northeast – a zone fighting hard to end Boko Haram insurgency.
Presidential spokesman Femi Adesina quoted the President as saying during the meeting that: “We have problems of resources and security. You know what we inherited. The people of the Northeast will appreciate what this administration has done. “I assure you that the government is doing its best. Lack of resources has hit us very hard. COVID-19 is a phenomenon. It has no respect for colour, you can’t smell it, you can’t see it, you can’t hear it. The United States and us are the same. It is a fantastic phenomenon. I think we should all go back to God.”
“Nigerians, we thank God, understood us and they voted for us. In 2019, we went round the whole country, saying the same thing and apologising for not doing better, but we are doing our best. I think Nigerians believe us and we did our best.” Zulum explained that they made it known that creating an enabling environment for the people to return to their homes and farmlands would reduce the influence of Boko Haram in the zone.
