militants through oil companies and law-enforcement agencies to find a
lasting solution to insecurity in the region.

to secure the environment, otherwise investment will not come. We will
do our best for the country,”he said.The President used the opportunity to thank the government of Germany
for its continuing support to Nigeria in the efforts to tackle
insecurity and the on-going rehabilitation and resettlement of displaced
citizens in crisis areas in the North-Eastern parts of the country.
