We've Made Remarkable Progress Against Insurgency - President Jonathan

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday declared that Nigeria had made remarkable progress in her fight against insurgency and terrorism.

Jonathan, who expressed delight in the performance of the military in the ongoing battle against Boko Haram, said they (military) displayed a high level of patriotism.

The President made this declaration in a message to the newly inducted Batch ‘A’ members of the National Youth Service Corps deployed in Rivers State.

He promised that the Federal Government would not surrender until Nigeria was safe from insurgency.

President Jonathan expressed confidence that the incoming administration of General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), would sustain the support given to corps members in order to achieve the objectives of the scheme.

“Through the patriotic and courageous efforts of our armed forces, combined with the right equipment and strategy, we have made remarkable progress in the fight against insurgency and we will not relent, until all parts of the country are safer for our people and for national service.

“I believe the next government will continue to support and encourage corps members by fulfilling its statutory obligations to the scheme and providing a peaceful atmosphere for optimal performance of corps members wherever they are.
