President Muhammadu Buhari says the battle against Boko Haram is a fight to the finish and the insurgents will be wiped out from the region.

The president said this at the extra-ordinary summit of heads of state and government of the Lake Chad basin commission and Benin in Abuja on Saturday.

He lamented that the region had suffered decades of neglect and poor infrastructural development in the last eight years of the Boko Haram crisis.

Buhari asked leaders to be mindful of the fact that the military may not provide the desired results alone, while there is a need to also pursue a developmental approach to ending the crisis in the area.

“The time has come for the evil of Boko Haram to be brought to a definitive end. I am sure that this summit will take the right decisions in this regard. This is a fight to the finish. We must, and we will, by the grace of God, wipe out terrorism from our sub-region,” Buhari said.

“The Lake Chad region has suffered decades of neglect and poor infrastructural development, the Boko Haram crisis in the last eight ( years has worsened its already bad situation. We must take cognizance of the fact that sustainable growth and development of the sub-region is dependent on the quick attainment of peace and stability in the area.

“We must put an end to the crisis in the sub-region to enable meaningful development for its people. We must remain resolute and committed in our collective efforts at attaining peace as well as eradicating terrorism and violent extremism from the sub-region.

“To our esteemed partners and the larger international community, we appreciate your valuable support and contributions in helping with the resultant humanitarian crisis. We thank you for intelligence sharing and operations in our determination to defeat Boko Haram and its affiliates.

“We, however, solicit greater cooperation and additional assistance to the LCBC/MNJTF to completely end the menace of Boko Haram and eradicate it from the sub-region. Such an outcome would add to global peace and security.

“Our military strategy must be complemented by the mobilization and deployment of adequate resources to ensure the reconstruction, rehabilitation and rebuilding of civil authority, as well as the provision of relief and succor for the affected.”

I'm talking about the 1 billion dollars you mentioned stop using diversion tactic.....give us a proof that Dangote donated money....and to the image u uploaded, is building north east not different from fighting insurgency? Do you understand english at all?

Go and use google to find out about the rebuilding process in the north east instead of disgracing yourself online

The same BH that have been "technically defeated" then "terribly downgraded" and "lacking the capacity to carry out major attacks" but have now consistently taking to assaulting military formations to loot weapons

You want to wipe out Boko haram yet you paid them over 25 million dollars and released over 800 fighters to them ? Buharibos youbdony know you are today their primary funder and recruiter

Yes! However, they are still attacking esp.the NE and sporadically in the NW while the killer fulani herdsmen are doing the damage in the NC and some parts down South.

Meanwhile this is not a justifiable reason why the Buhari-led APC government have played and still continued to play politics with this unfortunate self-inflicted BH carnage.Ask the Shehu of Borno.

We are talking about insurgency here... Forget the area they tell you the money for... Whether for rebuilding or welfare of the IDPs.. These are excuses to steal and loot

Buhari remains the worse thing to happen to North east.. More cilivians and soldiers have lost their lives since he took over..

Boko haram are now attacking people in some parts of Borno state unlike when your clueless party was in power......boko haram is even as a result of the failure of your party at the federal level....it started under your party, so what are you saying?
