Gov. Buni lauds troops for repelling Boko Haram attack in Yobe

The Chairman of APC Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee and Yobe State Governor, Hon. Mai Mala Buni has commended the Nigerian army and other security organisations for repelling the attempted attack on Babbangida town, the headquarters of Tarmuwa local government council on Wednesday.

In a statement signed by the Director, press and media affairs to the Yobe state governor, Mamman Mohammed, Gov. Buni said the bravery exhibited by the combatant soldiers in defeating the terrorists  forced them to retreat back into the bush.

“We are proud of our gallant troops who have shown great patriotism and superior fire power to deal with the terrorists.

“Your resilience,  bravery and gallantry made us all proud, the government and people of Yobe state, and Nigerians in general will continue to be with you” Buni assured.

The governor further lauded the security agencies for the improved security in the state which has translated into increased economic activities.

He reiterated the support of his administration and the good people of Yobe state to all security agencies in the state.

Meanwhile, Governor Buni has called on the people to be optimistic on the massive repentance of some members of Boko Haram recorded in Borno state.

“We should all pray that the repentance is for real and is the begining of the end of insurgency in Nigeria” he prayed.
