He made the remark at a summit meeting in Paris with Nigeria and neighbouring countries, assuring that Nigeria will rise to the occasion and defeat Boko Haram.

“We will not succumb to terrorists and their dangerous tactics.Terrorists will not be allowed to define who we are. An attack on one country is an attack on all of us and our common humanity.
