Speaking at the opening of the meeting of Nigeria’s Honorary International Investment Council (HIIC) on Friday. President Goodluck Jonathan assured the gathering that the Armed Forces and security agencies were making steady gains in recovering areas recently taken by
Boko Haram according to Vanguardngr.

He Said: “We are improving on security. For about a week now there have been no reports of Boko Haram seizing more territories. Rather, we are steadily pushing them back. The impression being created by sections of the media that the situation is worsening is not true. I can assure you that it will never get worse,”

He also told the council headed by Baroness Lynda Chalker of his willingness to carry on for another four years, he said:
“As you already know, I have indicated my willingness to carry on for another four years if I am given the opportunity so that we can carry forward some of the reforms we have been talking about,”

About transportation infrastru-cture, improvement of local content in Nigeria’s oil industry, economic growth, job creation and national security. The president said:

“We cannot move the economy forward without good infrastructure. We have been working very hard in that area. We have improved our road network significantly. In the next three to four years, we should be able to resurface almost all federal roads in the country and begin new ones.“We are improving our airport terminals and aviation security. Reforms are also ongoing at our ports to drastically reduce the time required for import clearance formalities.“In the rail sector, we may require private sector funds to quicken the pace of development. Our goal is to link all state capitals by rail. It may not be an objective that can be achieved by a single administration, but we want to lay a solid foundation that others can build on.“We are also promoting the increase of local content in our oil industry, because that is the only way in which our people will benefit more from the industry and begin to see themselves as true stakeholders who need to protect and help in the development of our oil and gas resources,”
