Adamawa Not using N200m for prayers against Boko Haram

The Adamawa  state Government says the N200m is not used  to mobilize prayers warriors against Boko Haram but it is using the amount to strengthen existing community surveillance and intelligence gathering to checkmate the operations of the insurgent in the state.

Contrary to the report of using the  amount to pay prayer warriors in the state to pray against Boko Haram insurgency. In a statement  released by the Chief Press  Secretary to the state Governor  Mathias Yohanna

“One of the challenges inherited by the Government on assumption of office is the menace of Boko Haram insurgency.

And as a serious and responsive government it deemed it fit to tackle it head on by evolving new security measures and sustaining the existing ones aimed at curbing the menace thereby enhancing security of lives and properties.

The correct position of the matter is that government had evolved a community mobilisation process intended to enhance peace and security in the state”.
