“As to those who have issued threats to Mr. President, I think it is more of propaganda than anything, it is laughable,” Mr. Mohammed said
“I want to reassure you that the government is up to the task of ensuring security. Security challenges will come anywhere in the world. The important thing is the fact that you do not lose focus and you continue to work assiduously to overcome it.
“I want to assure you, we are going to overcome.”
