Minister of Defense, Brigadier- General (rtd) Mansur Mohammed Dan-Ali has reassured Nigerians that activities of the Boko Haram insurgents would end this new month. Dan-Ali gave the assurance during a public hearing organised by the Senate Committee on Appropriation to consider the request of President Muhammadu Buhari for a N465 billion supplementary budget on Monday.
President Muhammadu Buhari had promised Nigerians that his government would humble the terrorists this December. The minister of Defense assured the Senate Committee that budgetary allocation to the ministry will be utilized to achieve the December deadline.
We are going to ensure that the budgetary allocation given to us as Ministry of Defense is utilized to get the maximum eradication of insurgency in our territory.
Insurgency is not something that can be removed within a day. All we are saying is that we will ensure that maximum security will be achieved within the time frame given to us,
Dan-Ali told the Danjuma Goje-led Senate Committee.
