Buhari vows to crush Boko Haram in 2 months when he gets into office

In an interview with CNN yesterday
evening, Nigeria's president-elect Gen.
Buhari promised to 'plug' corruption and crush Boko Haram in 2 months. He told CNN's Amanpour from Abuja last night; “We know how they started and where they are now and we will rap
idly give attention to security in the country. And I believe we will effectively deal with them in two months when we get into office. We will be needing the
cooperation of neighbouring
countries such as Cameroon,
Chad and Niger. There were
efforts made by the President
Goodluck Jonathan
administration, but it was not
good enough and it came rather
late” “We expected the Federal Gov­
ernment four years ago to sit
down with these countries and
make sure they do not allow the
terrorists free movement across
borders, training facilities and
movement of weapons. These
were only done a few months
ago and we have seen how
Cameroon, Chad and Niger are
fighting Boko Haram more than
Nigeria is doing until recently.
Really we have seen enough and
we have enough law
enforcement to face Boko
Haram squarely.”
Buhari said the military didn't perform as well as they should have because of corruption in the system
“They will…if you recall, the
Nigerian soldiers out of all
ethical expectations were
granting interviews to foreign
journalists, saying they were
being sent to fight terrorists
without proper weapons. And
then the National Assembly
attempted to conduct a hearing
to find out how much money
was approved for training and
weapon in the last three years
but that hearing was scuttled by
the administration.”
