Nigeria Information Minister defends the country's security record

Nigeria Information Minister Lai Mohammed has drawn parallels between the United States' difficulties in dealing with the Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan and Nigeria's challenges with home-grown terrorists like Boko Haram. Despite continuing reports of abductions and killings, particularly in the northeast of the country, Minister Mohammed says Nigeria overall is winning the war against terrorism.
