Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum has attributed arms proliferation and insurgency in the North East to porous borders with neighbouring countries of Niger, Chad and Cameroun.

Zulum raised the alarm yesterday when the president of Alumni Association of National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies , IGP Mohammed Abubakar visited him at Government House, Maiduguri. He maintained that without efficient manning of international borders by security agencies, terrorism could linger unabated with continued loss of life and property.

MEANWHILE, he has inaugurated a committee to return Internally Displaced Persons to Baga on the shores of Lake Chad. BORNO has marked 1,300 houses for demolition in Maiduguri Metropolitan and Jere councils.The marked houses were reportedly built on the waterways and banks of River Nggadabul.
