President Buhari says despite the recent attacks by
Boko Haram members in some parts of Borno state, the group has now been
decimated to the point where they do not have a hold on any Local government
area in Nigeria. Buhari said this while speaking with the visiting President of
Germany, Joachim Gauck, at the statehouse today Feb 11th
“It is a pity Boko haram welcomed you by explosions in Maiduguri
that took so many lives, but I have attempted to explain in so many fora that
Boko haram is not what it used to be. While they were firmly holding 14 out of
774 local governments when we came in, they are not holding any local
government now. What they have resorted to is using improvised explosive
devices to cause maximum casualties on soft targets as they did yesterday,” he
said.
