President Muhammadu Buhari s expected to visit Maiduguri, the Borno state capital
for a one day working visit tomorrow Thursday.
Governor Babagana Umara Zulum stated this during a live -broadcast to fellow citizens in Maiduguri, the state capital, called on the citizens to come out enmasse and welcome the august visitor to the state.
The President and his entourage according to the Governor would be in the state to appraise the security situation in the north east, and thereafter, commission multiple projects executed by the present administration in the last two years.
Governor Zulum while appreciating the tremendous support his administration enjoyed from the people of the state irrespective of tribe or political inclinations, enjoined all to conduct themselves in an orderly manner before, during and after the President’s visit.
Said he:-“Fellow good citizens, as government, we want to express our sincere gratitude to you for the tremendous support and prayers to the present administration.
Your support and prayers have greatly assisted in the restoration of peace to our dear state, which ushered in conducive atmosphere for Government to execute a lot of people-oriented projects that cut across health, education, agriculture, jobs creation, women/youth empowerment and poverty alleviation among others.
By the special grace of Allah (God), Mr. President would be coming to Maiduguri on Thursday 17th June, 2021, purposely to appraise our security situation in the north east, during which he will commission some of developmental projects executed by the state government”.
The President according to Zulum will also commission the first phase of 10,000 houses which he generously approved and funded, for the resettlement of IDPs and refugees, confirmed that the Federal Government under President Buhari has completed 4,000 out of the 10,000 houses approved for our IDPs some of these houses are sited in Kaleri, Dalori and more locations.
According to the governor:-“the 10,000 houses approved by Buhari is so far the largest Federal Government housing intervention, sited in one state, our ongoing housing resettlement is only made possible by the relative peace in most of our local government areas.
“While I must admit that we still have security challenges, at the same time, if we cast our minds back to the realities before President Buhari’s coming, we would factually recall, that many of our communities in northern, central and southern Borno, were mostly, no-go-areas.
