…Security chiefs efforts not good enough for me, says Buhari
No fewer than 35 commuters have been abducted by Boko Haram terrorists along Damaturu-Maiduguri road, in Borno State.
It was gathered that the terrorists attacked a long convoy of commuters near Garin-Kuturu, in Jakana, on Damaturu-Maiduguri road, on Friday evening.
Sources said the insurgents, who appeared in military uniforms, mounted a roadblock on the highway with five Hi-Lux vans before abducting the passengers.
Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed displeasure in the efforts of military service chiefs, saying their efforts are not good enough for him. The President spoke in an interview with the Nigerian Television Authority, (NTA), clips of which were posted on his verified Twitter handle on Friday.
According to him, his administration is well aware of its responsibility to secure the country, provide a peaceful atmosphere for citizens, adding that he was aware that there are still much to be done in delivering that responsibility.
It would be recalled that many Nigerians and beyond had called for the sack of security chiefs as well as a complete overhaul of the nations security architecture following the escalation of violent crimes across the country.
Speaking on the issue of the kidnap and eventual rescue of more than 300 students of Government Science Secondary School Kankara, Katsina State, he lauded both the State government and the security agencies for being prompt in response.
