He stated this when he attended the revival service of the Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement at its headquarters in Ijesha, Lagos. “The idea of the group was to start from the centre of the country and then move to bring the whole country down,” Jonathan said.
He listed the United Nation’s building, Police Headquarters, Army barracks market and Nyanya Motor Park as some of the places the terrorist organisation attacked in the federal capital.
He, however, said that the efforts of the Federal Government had curtailed the spread of the attacks to other parts of the country, except in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe states.
The president said that insurgency and terrorism were global phenomena that were not peculiar to Nigeria, but added that with international collaboration, the Armed Forces would defeat the extremists. “We are working hard as a government and with your cooperation, we will rout terrorism.
“We will work harder to protect all Nigerians. We will improve the economy so that people will have jobs so that these distractions about terror will end,” he said.
