Hamza Al-Mustapha, former aide to Nigeria’s former Head of State, late Sani Abacha, says he will relocate to Sambisa Forest to end Boko Haram within 6 months, if he becomes the president of Nigeria.
Al-Mustapha who is running for president on the platform of the Action Alliance (AA) vowed that his administration will do whatever it takes to tackle insecurity in the country.
He made the assertions during an interview with BBC Hausa on Friday.
He said he will rework how the military operates and responds to security threats.
According to the retired soldier,“There will be a military with renewed vigour and committment under his administration.
“If I become the President, I will live in Sambisa; I will stay there during weekends, holidays and see if anyone will touch me. I will deal with the problem of insecurity no matter whose ox is gored.
“Look at the silly act of Boko Haram, I swear if it is not possible in 6 months to deal with them, I will demote all these senior officers and send them home. They would be prosecuted and must return the money given to them. I will probe them.
“Nigerian soldiers have now become policemen and you know how corrupt our police are. So, within these six months, I will bring sanity into the way the Nigerian military operates to be able to confront emerging security threats with renewed vigour and commitment”
