President Bola Tinubu has directed all service chiefs to move to Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, following the recent surge terrorist attacks in the state.
Tinubu made this known in a statement he personally signed
and made available to reporters on Tuesday, following the Monday bomb attacks
that claimed the lives of at least 23 people.
Recall that multiple suicide bombings by
suspected Boko Haram members were recorded in the state on Monday.
The President, who commiserated with the Borno people over
recent terror strikes, assured that the Nigerian military is winning the war
against the insurgents.
He revealed that during a security meeting with leaders of
security and intelligence agencies last week, he approved additional equipment
and operational support to enhance their capabilities.
According to him, the effort is already in progress.
“Additionally, I have directed security chiefs to move to
Maiduguri to take charge of the situation. I have also directed the emergency
agencies to provide proper care for the injured,” Tinubu added.
