Buhari decries politicisation of country's security situation

Nigeria's President, Muhammadu Buhari has decried the politicisation of the security situation in his country.

Speaking at the State House, Abuja when he played host to the promoters of the proposed African Security Leadership Summit, Buhari claimed that: "The security records show where we were in terms of security in 2015, where we are now, and we also know where we want to be."

According to him, the "undue politicisation" of the country's security situation was unnecessary and commended the plan to hold a high-powered security summit that would bring together some of the leaders at the continent as well as other stakeholders.
