Speaking at the ceremony on Wednesday in Bama, Zulum said that no meaningful development could be achieved in the recovered areas without restoration of business activities.
The governor noted that the efforts put up by the military in the state had led to the expansion of farming activities this year in the hitherto no-go areas.
Also speaking, the Joint Task Force Commander, “Operation Hadin Kai”, Maj.-Gen. Christopher Musa, said that the development was another victory in the quest by the military to ensure peace and normalcy in the state and other parts of North-East zone.
Musa commended the government and people of Borno for their cooperation and support to the military and other security agencies.
He assured of the commitment of the military to continuing to deliver on its mandate.
