Hollande promises to help Nigeria combat Boko Haram

‘Your struggle is our struggle,’ Hollande tells Nigeria

Francois Hollande:promises to help Nigeria

French President Francois Hollande promised Nigeria support on Thursday in the battle against Islamist group Boko Haram, saying France would always be ready to help combat extremism in defence of democracy.

“Your struggle is also our struggle,” Hollande told delegates at a security conference in the capital Abuja ahead of Nigeria’s unification centenary celebrations.

“We will always stand ready not only to provide our political support but our help every time you need it because the struggle against terrorism is also the struggle for democracy.”

Hollande lamented some of the recent violence perpetrated by suspected Boko Haram fighters, including the massacre earlier this week of at least 59 students in their sleep at a secondary school in the Islamists’ northeast stronghold.

Despite crises in several regions, the French president maintained there was reason for optimism in Nigeria and Africa as a whole.

“Africa has a great future. It’s the continent of tomorrow,” he said.

He however warned that such promise could be “impeded by insecurity”. He then vowed to double French overseas development aid to the continent within the next five years.
