against Boko Haram insurgents has said he would send 800 soldiers to Nigeria to
join the Nigerian military in their quest to extinct the activities of the

Boni
Yayi during his visit to President Buhari at the state house Abuja yesterday said
that
“President
Buhari took over the mantle of government at a time terrorism occasioned by the
activities of Boko Haram is high.
To
fight terrorism, Benin is ready to send about 800 men to join the men that are
already prepared to fight terrorism. The team is battle ready for deployment.
The will power is there and Benin is committed to deploying the men. Benin will
always remain on the side of Nigeria in its trying times. The sub-region is
also going through serious problems of development. Fighting Boko Haram is
becoming difficult because OPEC countries are going through oil crisis. We will
always stand beside Buhari in his fight against corruption.” he stated.
