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.
