President Goodluck Jonathan has pledged that he will
do all within his powers to ensure that all Nigerian territory still held by
Boko Haram insurgents are totally liberated before May 29th.
He made the pledge when he had audience with a
delegation of Heads of Customs from the West and Central African Region of the
World Customs Organisation led by the Secretary-General of the organisation,
Mr. Kunio Mikuriya.
President Jonathan said that he was determined to hand
over a country completely free of terrorist strongholds to the President-elect,
General Muhammadu Buhari.
The President said that ongoing military operations in
the North-East had already recorded huge successes, with two states completely
free from the control of terrorists, while operations in the third state had
reached a concluding stage.
He
disclosed that the military had already moved into the forest to seize the
remaining camps of the terrorists, adding that the recent rescue of about 300
abducted girls and women was further evidence of the success being achieved in
the ongoing operation.
