The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has said that some foreign entities including human right groups such as Amnesty International and the International Criminal Court were being used to frustrate Nigeria’s efforts to deal with the Boko Haram menace.

The Minister of Information and Culture said this on Monday at a media briefing in Lagos.

He alleged that threats of sanctions and other unwholesome tactics being used to threaten and demoralize the nation’s military and security services only go to serve the interests of terrorists and further put Nigeria’s security in jeopardy.

Assuring the country of improved security this year, the Minister said President Muhammadu Buhari had continued to provide the armed forces and other security agencies with whatever was required to function better in terms of platforms, logistics and capacity development.
