Problem in the “North-East is very difficult” – Buhari.
President Muhammadu Buhari said on Thursday that the problem of insurgency in the “North-East is very difficult”.
He said this on Arise TV in an interview.
Buhari dismissed the assertion that majority of Boko Haram members were foreigners.
According to him, the majority of the Boko Haram members are Nigerians, saying this was further corroborated by Gov. Babagana Zulum of Borno.
The president stated that his administration had done a lot to fight the terrorists and insurgents but the problem in the “North-East is very difficult.”
On farmers/herders clashes, the president said the problem had persisted because old cattle routes and grazing areas had been violated by development, adding that those who had taken over such traditional arrangements would be dispossessed.
