Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum has revealed that the fight against insurgency may not end in the North east.
According to Zulum sabotage in the system will not allow it to end.
The governor spoke on Sunday when he met with the Governors of Kebbi and Jigawa States, Atiku Bagudu and Badaru Abubakar, who paid him a solidarity visit over the recent attack in Baga – a town in Borno.
Governor Zulum believes some elements are trying to frustrate the effort of the government in ending the insurgency, saying the President needs to know the truth.
“Let me also re-echo my previous position with respect to the level of insurgency in Borno State, I earlier said that the gravity of the insurgency cannot be compared with what has happened between 2011 to 2015, and 2015 to date. Yes, it’s true. The President has done well.
“But there’s sabotage in the system that will not allow insurgency to end; the President has to know this very important point.”
“When he came to Maiduguri two months ago, I said so because between 2011 to 2015, at a time almost about 22 LGAs were under the insurgents.
“Out of the four main roads that lead to Maiduguri. only one was functional,” the governor added.
He stressed the need for President Muhammadu Buhari to examine the security situation in the region critically, to ensure the effort of his administration was not in vain.
The meeting, which was also attended by the state Deputy Governor, Umar Kadafur, held at the Government House in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital.
