B’Haram Has Slowed Down Development In My State -Gaidam

Ibrahim GaidamThe Yobe State Governor, Ibrahim Gaidam has lamented the effect of Boko Haram insurgency in his state since 2011. He said the insurgency has denied him of achieving his set goals when he was sworn in as governor of the state.

He however continued by saying that despite the eruption he had been able to record a 90 per cent achievement.

The governor who gave an account of his stewardship at the gathering of his party members, the All Progressives Congress on Saturday, where he was announced as the sole governorship candidate of the party for the 2015 election.

Gaidam said, “This unfortunate event has slowed down the execution of our policies and programmes. The resources we commit to support the prosecution of the war against the insurgents have affected the execution of our capital projects.

“Some of the areas of support to security agencies include provision of over 300 Hilux vehicles, payment of over N250m monthly as allowances alone, fuelling and repairs of security vehicles, assistance to the families of security personnel killed in action, and the payment of medical bills of those of them who sustain various degrees of injury in the fight with insurgents.” He concluded.
