Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari says education is a wise response to counter Boko Haram insurgency.
“This is a wise response to Boko Haram terrorism. Education plays a significant and remedial role in the efforts to provide equal opportunity and achieve a higher standard of living for citizens,” he said. The president commended the Borno State government for investment in housing and education, noting that the focus on education by the state government is imperative, due to the peculiar security challenge posed by Boko Haram ideologues. He said the insurgents’ ideology was targeted against education, especially for the girl-child.
Alhaji Abubakar Garba El-Kanemi, the Shehu of Borno, lauded Buhari’s “respect for traditional institution", and urged the President to give more support to the military to accelerate the operation against the insurgents particularly at the Lake Chad region.
