President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday said despite criticisms, his government had make remarkable progress in the fight against Boko Haram terrorists.


He said the people in the North-East were aware of his achievement, the President wrote on his verified Twitter handle, @MBuhari.

Since 2002, Boko Haram insurgents have killed more than 70,000 residents, abducted thousands and displaced over 2.3 million from their homes, according to the Crisis Group.

In 2015, the Global Terrorism Index ranked the sect as the world’s deadliest terror group.

President Buhari told the British Broadcasting Corporation in a December 2015 interview that his administration had technically defeated the sect, saying Boko Haram could no longer carry out conventional attacks against security forces or population centres.


But the terrorist group has since then carried out deadly attacks, mainly in the North-East.

Jubril end-time president.

No wonder police are now deployed to pray for boko haram with no gun but quaran!

bloody liar.

"The pertinent questions Nigerians are asking are: how come Boko Haram still had the kind of audacity displayed in that attack on Nigerian soldiers when the presidency and the military top brass had earlier told us that the terrorist organisation had been “technically defeated”?

"When Buhari appointed a majority of the service chiefs from a particular region and religion, he and his supporters defended it and claimed that even if all his appointees come from one region and religion in a multicultural, multi-religious and multiethnic nation like Nigeria, it means nothing as long as they are competent.Today, nothing exposes the shallowness and puerility of such appointments."

This president is sick-mentally unstable.

yes by funding them and recruiting for them

Mentally unbalanced

Lie should stop with 2018 na

Of course, you have done well. ISWAP has taken control of Baga and killed many soldiers. That's a plus to an ex Army general.
Lifeless FC.

This mumu have told so many les he finds ot difficult in knowing which onebos true or not. Shetimma Governor of Bornu said they have never had it this worst, but who we go now believe Buharo or Shetimma?

But the Borno State governor disagrees. The soldiers at the warfront also disagree.

I know it won't be long before the result of the ransom payment and release of BokoHaram fighters under whatever negotiations will come back to hunt the country.

The terrorists have not been these emboldened in recent times.
