I Will End Boko Haram If Elected As President - Atiku

Former Vice-President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who is aspiring to become President in 2019, has said he would put an end to the Boko Haram crisis in the shortest time after his inauguration as Nigeria’s president.

Abubakar, who is one of the presidential aspirants on the platform of the PDP, made the vow while addressing his supporters at the Forshams Hall, Maiduguri, Borno State’s capital.

He said, “Nigeria ended its civil war in only two and a half years despite the thick forest in the South-East. I wonder why the war against insurgency took us nine years; there must be something wrong somewhere.”

He added, “If elected, I will not allow any commander to tell me stories, we must end insurgency within the shortest possible time because the insurgency has crippled everything in the North-East.”

The Director-General, Atiku campaign Organisation, Senator Gbenga Daniel, who's a former governor of Ogun state, said they were in Maiduguri in consultation with PDP stakeholders in Borno.

He said, “This is the chance for the people of the North-East to produce the next President, you should not miss this opportunity to produce the President. So, I call on you to support one of your own.”
