Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has given his assurance that the eligible voters from his state won’t be deterred by fears of attacks, saying they’ll go out in masses to exercise their civic duties.
Zulum made this assurance when he briefed State House correspondents shortly after a closed-door meeting with the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.
Asked if Borno citizens would freely participate in the February/March elections, Zulum said, “The people of Borno State voted during the 2015 elections. They also voted during the 2019 elections.
“Can you compare the security situation in 2019, 2011 and now? The security in Borno has improved tremendously by over 90%. So we don’t have any problem.
Eligible voters can go and cast their votes on election day, Insha Allah, in Borno State, we don’t have any problem,” he concluded.
