The Third Force, a coalition of young Nigerian politicians and professionals has called on Information Minister, Lai Mohammed to relocate to Maiduguri, the Borno state capital if the battle against Boko Haram is truly is over.
A statement issued on Thursday, December 24 by a spokesperson for the group Ishaq Abubakar, read, ”While the defeat and end of Boko Haram in Nigeria is a dream all well-meaning citizens of Nigeria desire and have supported the government and the Nigerian Army to accomplish, The THIRD Force however believes that there should be limits to reckless and irresponsible propaganda especially when it is coming from the office of a public officer paid with taxpayers’ money.
”Lai Mohammed’s hasty declaration on Tuesday that Boko Haram has been defeated was not only misguided but an idiotic attempt to end the war against Boko Haram on the pages of newspapers.
