Gov. Kashim Shettima of Borno speaking with newmen on Tuesday in Maiduguri said that the Boko Haram insurgents would not emerge victorious in their continued killing and maiming of innocent Nigerians.
"They can burn our physical infrastructure, but they cannot destroy our souls.
"We are going to survive and rebuild our lives because truth will always triumph over falsehood,’’ he said.
He said that Boko Haram was an ideology built on falsehood which cannot stand the test of time.
He said the recent attack and abduction of some female students of the Government Girls Secondary School (GGSC), Chibok, was " a trial from God," and added that "we will overcome it soon."
"Our hearts go to the parents of the abducted girls, because it is a tragedy that has befallen all of us,’’ he said.
Shettima expressed optimism that the girls would soon be rescued by security agents.
"Security agents are working very hard to rescue the girls. Hopefully the girls will be rescued in a very short while,’’ he said.
