Boko Haram: President Jonathan blames failure to end insurgency on saboteurs
President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday blamed his administration’s inability to crush the Boko Haram insurgents on both internal and external saboteur.
Jonathan who was speaking when a delegation of Nollywood stars under the aegis of “Creative Professionals” visited him at the Presidential Villa, said his government would do everything possible to end the Boko Haram insurgency.
The delegation was led by Actor, Segun Arinze, President Jonathan, who did not call the names of the alleged saboteur, however thanked the group for observing one minute of silence for those killed by the insurgents, charging the thespians to continue to spread the campaign against insurgency.
He said ‘’ “One of our greatest challenges and I have to thank you for observing that one-minute of silence in their honour, is this security challenge.
“But we are working very hard, we have our frustrations, we have issues of sabotage: internal and external, but we are working very hard and by the grace of God, we will overcome.”
Going forward, the president stated that the country equally needed serious effort to upgrade its infrastructure to meet the needs of the nation and its citizens.
He pleaded with the actors to call to order some politicians who are in the habit of creating tension in the country through their unguarded comments in the interest of peace.
