Buhari assures Service Chiefs
President Buhari’s assurance was also contained in a statement released by the Senior Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu on Friday.
The President who noted that much has been achieved in the area of security since he took over power in 2015, stated that more still needs to be done.
President Buhari said considering the security situation on the ground when he came to office, “Nigerians know that we have done our best. However, what is coming out of the North West and North Central is very disturbing.”

“We are making available resources to them to even do better,” he assured, adding that, “from the reports I am getting, they could do much better. But we are keeping them on the alert all the time to do their duties.”
