President Goodluck Jonathan has admitted that Boko Haram is the reason why  his administration is moving on a snail speed in terms of performance and why he is yet to fullfill his election campaign promises.

Mr Jonathan made the confession at the 60th National Executive Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party.

He attributed the security challenges facing the country, most especially Boko Haram insurgents in the Northern region as the major problems which had caused a lot of distraction to his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s led government.

He listed job creation and power supply as priority areas that were meant to be addressed in earnest but which have been overshadowed by insecurity.

Mr Jonathan, however, expressed the optimism that the challenges posed by the sect would soon reduce, regretting that the relative peace experienced in the last three weeks was punctured by the recent attacks on mourners in Plateau State.

“Security agencies are working hard on the problem in Plateau and God willing, the issue of Boko Haram will soon come down.”
