“In Borno, particularly, Brigade headquarters was attacked, many soldiers, men and officers of the Nigerian Army were killed.
“Let me use this opportunity to extend my condolences to the families of the deceased, may God, in His infinite mercy, forgive them.
“I think it is my own responsibility to come and say the truth to Mr President.
“Llet him know what is going on in the entire Northeast sub-region.
“I think there is a need for us to get support for us to succeed in this war against insurgents. It’s very pathetic. A few days ago, Damasak was attacked, hundreds of people started fleeing Damasak and now Geidam is almost deserted, many people have left Geidam.”
Commenting on the cause of the deteriorating security situation in his state, Zulum said;
“I think the military is yet to receive some of the equipment that they have ordered for.”
