Speaking to newsmen after the plenary at the National Assembly on Thursday February 13, Shettima stated that grandstanding, playing to the gallery, pouring venom on the presidency will not solve the problem. He also recalled how President Buhari has strategically placed the Northeast region through the establishment of North East Development Commission and discovery of oil. The Senator said; Quote:“Let’s see to it that the challenges facing us as a nation and as a people are promptly addressed, and it is not beyond us to solve those challenges. Senator Kasshim added that fighting insurgency is a collective responsibility as he called for the adoption of a holistic approach encompassing the military, economic, social and political in the war against terrorism. He said; Quote:“Fighting insurgency is a collective responsibility for all of us; it is a complex composite and interwoven challenge and it is not something that you can solve only through military option. On President Buhari getting booed in Maiduguri during a condelence visit on Wednesday February 12, Shettima stated that people's expectations “were over exaggerated”. According to him, many thought Buhari had a “magic wand.” Shettima said; Quote:“The people of Borno love Buhari, maybe their expectations were over exaggerated. People thought he had a magic wand, he doesn’t have one, I believe it is a temporary hiccup,” he said. |
