Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) over the weekend said that President Muhammadu Buhari is winning the battle against Boko Haram .
According to LEADERSHIP, Oyegun said that Buhari has prevented the terrorists from taking more territories. He said it was unfortunate that the level of bombings in recent times have escalated but maintained that it was one of the desperate moves by the insurgents to create panic since they could no longer be confined to holding a part of the country to ransom as was the case when they were in control of several local governments under the erstwhile Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
''It is the most difficult thing to contain in the immediate term but the government is working very intensively to match this change of tactics by Boko Haram. Don’t forget they started by bombings, then when they saw that they could hold territories, they shifted to wanting to create their own country within a county. That has been the movement. But now that they have been contained and driven out of holding territories, they have now gone back to the original tactics that they started with; that is where the new confrontations is. We are relying intensively on intelligence and trying to debrief minds'', Oyegun said.
