Borno State Governor, Professor Babagana Zulum, has accused military and other security personnel of promoting insecurity in Maiduguri and its environs.
Governor Zulum insisted that former and current serving personnel of Nigerian security forces have played a significant role in influencing civilian into criminality, radicalism, prostitution and other vices, heightening terrorism threats in the state.
Zulum led this out on Tuesday at the inauguration of a reconstituted committee on revocation of illegal hotels, brothels, shanties, and criminal hideouts and curbing the menace of antisocial vices at the council chambers of the government house in Maiduguri.

He said: “I am happy to know that army officers are here, especially the military, police, and others are here because most of these activities were committed by whom?
“Some of them are dismissed army officers, dismissed security officers, current army officers, men and officers, including civilians.
“So, there should be no sacred cow in this matter if we want the Maiduguri metropolis and indeed the state to get rid of insurgency, terrorism and other sorts of criminalities.”
