Buhari assured the armed forces of more procurement of armaments.
“We should not allow our adversaries or criminal elements to undermine our sovereignty.”
“While I commend you, let me tell you that there is still a lot of work to be done in the North East, West and entire country.”
The president was subsequently directed to the place where injured soldiers were being treated to sympathise with them.
Buhari is also expected to commission some projects executed by the state governor, Babagana Umara Zulum.
