President Goodluck
Jonathan has said that with
the security measures put
in place by his
administration, the Boko
Haram sect is being
progressively weakened.
Speaking at the Presidential
Villa in Abuja yesterday
while receiving the outgoing
representative of the
delegation of the European
Union to Nigeria and
ECOWAS, Mr. David Mac
Rae, Jonathan said his
administration would remain
proactive in combating
terrorism.
According to the president,
although measures taken
by his administration have
significantly reduced the
occurrence of terrorist
attacks in the country, the
government will continue
doing everything possible
to further enhance security
in all parts of the country.
"As a government, we are
doing everything possible
to improve our country on
all fronts. We are
consistently adapting our
security architecture to
deal with terrorism which
has become a challenge to
the whole world. Boko
Haram is being
progressively weakened
but we are not resting on
our oars. We will continue
to do everything possible
to achieve greater security
for all who reside within our
borders," the president
said.
Jonathan, who maintained
that many positive things
were happening in the
country, added that his
administration would
continue to do its best to
correct negative
perceptions about the
nation, such as the notion
of widespread insecurity
and corruption.
He welcomed the declaration
by the outgoing
ambassador that he had
recently travelled to the
Niger Delta and some
northern states and found
people there going about
their normal lives and
businesses without fear.
