Zulum lauded the Federal Government led by President Muhammadu Buhari for the restoration of peace and stability in Borno.

He said the military and other security agencies deserved commendation for sacrifices made to ensure that peace and security were restored in the state.

Mr Zulum said the state government would meet with the military after the 2023 general elections to identify areas liberated from terrorists in Borno.

The areas would be handed over to the police for the restoration of full civilian authority, the governor added.
