Borno State Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, has raised the concern over an alleged Boko Haram members dislodged from Chad who are now finding their way into the country.
The governor, who said that though success had been made in the fight against the insurgency, however, said that Boko Haram members are now making influx back to the region after being flushed out from Chad.
He called on the people to unite and support the security agencies in order to address the teething problem.
Governor Zulum said that there are people benefiting from the insurgent activities of Boko Haram and will not want it to end.
Boko Haram insurgency, which Borno and other northeastern states have been battling for years, has claimed lives of thousands of people and displaced several others.
Although the terrorists’ activities have been decimated to some extent in recent years, the fight against Boko Haram has yet to end
The governor decried how some people, whom he claimed were profiting from the Boko Haram insurgency in the Northeast region and Chad, were scuttling the fight against it.
He said, “There are people who don’t want this insecurity to end because they will not be happy with that.”
The governor, however, didn’t specifically mention those profiting from the insecurity in the region.
