President Jonathan Blames APC Governors For Boko Haram Insurgency

Speaking at the 65th meeting of the PDP National Executive Committee, NEC, in Abuja on Thursday, Mr. Jonathan said there was insecurity in the APC controlled states because the governors had not performed, unlike their counterparts in the PDP.

Although several states across party lines in Northern Nigeria have suffered from the activities of the Boko Haram insurgents, Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe are most affected. The three states are governed by the APC.

Mr. Jonathan blamed the APC governors saying their poor performance in office fuelled the insurgency.

"There is no insurgency in PDP states because the governors are performing," he said.
