Inspite of the spike in attacks by the violent Boko Haram sect in the North-East, the Federal Government has said it is winning the terrorism war.The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Amb. Bulus Lolo, told journalists on Saturday in Abuja that President Muhammad
Buhari has mapped out a regional security strategy in collaboration with Chad, Niger and Cameroun to end Boko Haram attacks.According to him, Buhari’s recent visit to Chad, Niger and Cameroun was to strategise, not only on military option, but to explore other measures that could be adopted to address the fundamental causes of the insurgency in order to find a final solution to the problem.“So the governments of these countries have agreed that they will meet military option with economic, social and supportive measures that will also bring succour to the people. With the strategies being put in place, the war against terrorism will be won soon because we are closing in on Boko Haram,” Lolo stated.
