We'll Rescue The Chibok Girls - President Jonathan Vows
President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday, January 24,
2015, took his campaign train to the city of Maiduguri, the capital of
Borno, in his quest for victory in the upcoming 2015 election.
Speaking at the rally held at Ramat Square, Jonathan assured the people of the state that his government would wipe out insurgency.
He said he shared the pain of the residents of the state which is the worst hit by insurgency. He led a minute’s silence in honour of victims of the insecurity in that part of the country. Jonathan said the abducted Chibok school girls would be rescued and that his government would do its best to make life worth living for the people.
Also speaking at the PDP rally in Borno, the minister of state for power, Alhaji Mohammed Wakil, said he believed that President Jonathan has demonstrated true love for Borno with his numerous initiatives aimed at developing the state.
He said; “The opposition has been making noise that the president
will not visit Borno. But he visited twice this month to show is love
for the people. The president visited first to condole the victims of
the insurgency attack in Baga where he personally met with the
Internally Displaced Persons in their camp. Today, he is here again to
showcase his achievements toward seeking re-election in next month’s
elections.”
“Mr President, we want to thank you for your show of concern to the people of the state over the insurgency problem. I want to inform you that work had reached 98 per cent completion on the new power line that you approved for the state,” he said.
Wakil also thanked the president for approving a new 138 KVA transformer for the state.
He said:“We want to thank you for the marching orders given for the restoration of power in Borno after about seven months of blackout. “We also commend you for implementing developmental projects in the state in spite of the current security challenges.”
