Borno State Governor Babagana Umara Zulum has commended the federal government and the military for responding to his call for the protection of Marte from falling to the insurgents.
Zulum made the commendation on Thursday in Marte town while speaking to journalists.
He said, “The federal government and the Nigerian Armed Forces have responded positively to our request to enhance security in the affected communities. We have seen many troops deployed and many pieces of equipment deployed.
“I want to commend the Nigerian Armed Forces for the cooperation they have been giving us; without their support, we couldn’t have done much.
“I want, once again, to commend all stakeholders that have contributed to our search for peace and the restoration of normalcy.”
