The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said the ongoing military campaign against the Boko Haram terrorists in the North-east will ensure that all territories hitherto captured by the terrorists are liberated by December 2015, but noted that suicide bombings on soft targets may continue beyond the date.
The minister stated this yesterday in Maiduguri, during a one day official visit to Borno State.
“What the military can do is only to liberate all our territories from the hold of Boko Haram members, if we think that there will be no more bombings after December, it is not feasible. There might be bombing of soft targets, but we as a government, will ensure that all our territories are liberated from Boko Haram terrorists,” he said.
However, Borno State Governor, Alhaji Kassim Shettima, expressed optimism that the on-going reconstruction and resettlement process in all the affected communities in all the 27 local government areas in the state would improve the fortune of the people in the state within a year.
