Former Abia State governor, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, has said the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration will do a lot to see that activities of Boko Haram and herdsmen become history.
Kalu stated this in his country home at Igbere, Abia state, after a meeting of All progressive Congress (APC) leaders.
Kalu said (late former President Umaru Musa) Yar’Adua had wanted to address the issue of Boko Haram but could not and called on President Muhammadu Buhari to give a realistic strategy on how the insurgency problem would be solved.
“I know president Buhari will do it. President Buhari is a military General; he understands war, he want to reassess the situation by himself as a commander, as you can understand that fighting Boko Haram and herdsmen is like war,” Kalu said.
He explained that Nigerians have been living with herders for a long time and there was no trouble unlike what obtained presently.
“What is going on, today, is politically motivated. I was born and brought up in Aba, I know Ama Hausa, the home of northerners. If you go to Kano, you see Sabon Gari, the home of the people who went there.
“The question is; ‘what has gone wrong?’ That is the fundamental question we should be asking.
“What is happening today is sabotage of the democratic process. We are calling on those perpetrating them to stop or the long arm of the law will soon get hold on them,” said Kalu.
