President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday, said that politics was the root cause of Boko Haram activities in the country, noting that the military alone cannot end the insurgency.
Buhari said successful counter-insurgency operations required what he called “unity of efforts across ministries, departments and agencies covering political, economic, law enforcement, intelligence and, of course, the military.”
The President, who spoke in Abuja while delivering a keynote address at the maiden Nigerian Air Force International Air Power Seminar, with the theme ‘Air Power in Irregular Warfare: A Framework for Understanding and Responding’, however, stated that his vision was to build a stable and prosperous Nigeria.
