President Muhammadu Buhari said on Thursday
that it is not easy for his administration which,
he said, is fighting on many fronts.
According to him, the government is
confronting the insurgency problem in the
North-East and oil theft in the South-South
while trying to provide basic infrastructure in the
country at the same time.
Buhari, who made this observation when
President Faure Gnassingbe of Togo visited the
Aso Rock Presidential Villa on Thursday to invite
him to a security summit in Togo in November,
2015, pointed out that development would be
impossible without security.
He, therefore, called for cooperation among
African countries to combat terrorism, piracy
and other security challenges facing the sub-
region.
The Nigerian leader also stressed the need for
African countries to pay closer attention to
agriculture and manufacturing to provide jobs for
unemployed youths.
He also expressed appreciation for Gnassingbe’s
visit and for his concern about regional security,
Boko Haram insurgency, oil theft, illegal fishing,
oil pollution and the dumping of toxins.
“His (Gnassingbe’s) concern about regional
security made it imperative for him to organise a
summit on maritime security and development in
November to examine a lot of issues.
“As for Nigeria, we are grateful for the sympathy
and the goodwill expressed, touching on the
performance of our armed forces and law
enforcement agencies, since this administration
came into being. It is not easy trying to fight on
so many fronts, the North-East, the South-
South and then try to provide infrastructure in
our country”, Buhari said.
The president observed that the cooperation of
the regional countries comprising Cameroon,
Chad, Niger and Benin Republic had resulted in
the isolation of Boko Haram and a chance of
peace in the region.
Speaking earlier, the Togolese leader commended
his host and the Nigerian security forces for the
work they are doing to combat terrorism in West
Africa.
President Gnassingbe informed Mr. Buhari that
the security summit being hosted by his country
would deal with issues of piracy, oil theft,
environmental pollution, immigration, as well as
human and drug trafficking.
When asked by State House correspondents if
African countries were not hosting too many
summits, Gnassingbe disagreed, saying the
summits were not enough.
He said, “Piracy alone costs the Gulf of Guinea
$7billion a year, that is what we lose for not
combatting it and we also know that without
cooperation you cannot combat piracy, but the
first stage is to come together and talk.
“If all the African countries are on the same
page, it would be easy to tackle the security
challenges, so we have to keep holding summits,
because individual countries cannot combat
piracy effectively without cooperation.
“If you try to fight them in Togo, they go to the
next country, then you don’t have the
mechanism to go into the other countries. So
summits are necessary, they are not even
sufficient”.
