The Sultan of Sokoto, Saad Abubakar III is confident that the security challenge confronting the nation would soon be over.
He expressed the optimism on Monday after talks with President Goodluck Jonathan in Abuja.
The Sultan was at the State House to submit the report of the 2013 Hajj Operation as the Head delegation.
He spoke with State House correspondents, “So this morning, we submitted our report to the President and highlighted areas of achievements and also some few areas which we feel the government should still come in.
“We also commended Mr. President for the support he has been giving to Hajj operations in Nigeria and I think you are all aware of the significant leap we have in terms of preparing and conducting Hajj operations in Nigeria. Much better than what it used to be.
“The President assured us of the government’s continued total support for Hajj operations in this country.
We also took time to rub minds on some few security issues affecting Nigeria. We heard from Mr. President and he also heard from us. In Sha Allah, Nigeria will be better for it very soon.”
