It appears President Muhammadu Buhari is making progress with
the fight against Boko Haram as he is optimistic about ending the deadly
activities of the insurgents by the end of this year. According to DailyPost,
The President made this known in Cotonou
on Saturday during a gala lunch held in his honour by the President of Benin
Republic, Boni Yayi, where he equally expressed optimism that the dividends of
the Multi-national Joint Task Force, MNJTF launched in Cameroon on Thursday
would soon become obvious.
This was as President Yayi described
his country as the 37th State of Nigeria and assured President Buhari that 800
troops would be contributed to the Joint Task Force by his country in the
all-out-assault on insurgents.
While commending Yayi for the
gesture, Buhari said, “and I assure you that we will defeat Boko Haram by the end
of this year”.
Err … don’t know how I feel about this. It sounds like
something I’ve heard before. Buhari was almost certain around the election
period that Boko Haram could be defeated in three months but look where we are?
Now he says before the end of the year. Anyway, all I can do is wish Mr
President all the best and hope his wishes come true. Please stay happy and
spread happiness around. Xoxo
