There is a heavy presence of security operatives in Borno State as the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) and some service chiefs arrived Maiduguri, the state capital on Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

The presidential jet landed at the Nigerian Air Force wing of the Maiduguri International Airport around 10am.<\/p>\n

Buhari and his entourage were received by the state governor, Babagana Zulum; as well as other government officials.<\/p>\n

The governor had in a statement on Wednesday, said, \u201cPresident, Muhammadu Buhari, will be coming to Borno State on Thursday, the 17th of June, 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President is coming to appraise security situation in the northeast, during which he will commission some of developmental projects executed by the state government.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President will also commission the first phase of 10,000 houses which he generously approved and funded, for the resettlement of IDPs and refugees.\u201d<\/p>\n

The last time the President visited Borno was on Wednesday, February 12, 2020 when a crowd of angry residents booed him while his convoy drove through Maiduguri.<\/p>\n

Buhari, upon returning from a five-day trip to Ethiopia for an African Union summit, had paid a condolence visit to the north-eastern state, following a Boko Haram attack.<\/p>\n

Though Buhari and his aides had repeatedly told Nigerians that Boko Haram was defeated, the terrorists continue to kill, rape and abduct children, women and men in the state.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
