BOOM! I Will Send Hunters After Boko Haram If Military Cannot Secure Baga – Borno Governor Blows Hot
Jul 31, 2020
In reaction to the recent attack on his convoy, the Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, has stated that he will deploy hunters if the military is unable to secure Baga.
Recall that Governor Zulum had departed Maiduguri, the state capital on Monday afternoon for the northern part of the state in continuation of the food distribution programme which he started earlier in July.
On Wednesday, he was scheduled to visit Baga, a fishing town on the shores of the Lake Chad region which has been under the control of insurgents for many years until the military declared its liberation, insisting no Nigerian territory is under the control of Boko Haram.
But, few kilometers to Baga, gunmen opened fire on the Governor and his entourage.
The Governor was forced to retreat as security operatives on escort duties repelled the attackers.
Expressing his displeasure over the attack on his convoy the governor noted that he was going to give the military some time and if they still could not restore peace in the community, he would be forced to send hunters to do their jobs.
