Boko Haram: We’ll end insurgency soon –Buhari

SAFRICA-AU-SUMMIT-NIGERIA
President Muhammadu Buhari has re-affirmed his administration’s determination to end the activities of Boko Haram insurgents soon.
He expressed the conviction that the end of the insurgency was in sight, given the added vigour with which the war against the sect was being prosecuted by Nigeria and her allies.
The president gave the assurance, when he had audience with the Chadian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Special Envoy of President Idris Deby, Mr. Mousa Faki Mahamat, in his office.
He assured that with the higher morale among troops in the frontline against Boko Haram insurgents and their improved logistics, equipment and training, a rapid end to the insurgency should be expected.
The president said, however, that Nigeria and Chad must be prepared to make more sacrifices to end the scourge of Boko Haram because the two countries were at the, “very heart” of the insurgency.
“We will sustain our effort, and the insurgents will be defeated soon,” he vowed. The special envoy of the Chadian president said President Deby appreciated the leadership being shown by President Buhari in the war against terrorism.
“We also appreciate the diligence shown in appointing a commander for the Multinational Joint Task Force, and President Deby believes that the fight will end in a few months.
“Our people rely on us to end the insurgency because economic development is being hampered. This fight has to come to an end. My coming here is to re-affirm our full commitment. Beyond the number of troops earlier announced, Chad is still ready to commit more soldiers. The enemy is weakened already. Let’s stand firm, and neutralize them,” he said.
