Boko Haram Will Fail – David Mark

The Senate President, David Mark, on May 12, 2014, Monday, assured Nigerians and foreign investors that the Nation will do everything possible to end the Boko Haram insurgency in the country.

Mark was talking with members of the Nigerian community in Beijing, China, and said: “Boko Haram has become a real nuisance, and the menace is unacceptable. They have declared war on Nigeria and we will fight them with all the resources at our disposal. “We will not allow it to go on for too long; government is very serious about it.

“It is an avoidable distraction and it is something we do not need at this point in our history when we are trying everything possible to bring development to Nigeria to attract foreign investors. “So, the message should go out loud and clear to anyone who is either a sponsor or a member of Boko Haram that we will fight them with all resources at our disposal,” Mr. Mark said.

The Nigerian Charge d’affaires in Beijing, Suleiman Tanko, thanked the Senate President for coming and talked about difficulty opening new businesses in China by Nigerians, He said: “If any Nigerian tells you that he has a business here, then it means that he is married to a Chinese lady; otherwise it is only merely petty trading that Nigerians are engaged in here,’’ 

He asked the Senate President to please look into the matter and help them out.
