He made the disclosure in Lagos at a reception for a meritorious service organised in his honour by people and monarch of Badagry monarch.

Amosu who expressed hope that insurgency by Boko Haram sect will soon be in the past, maintained that the military has successfully pushed the group to a point where they can no longer fight.

“We thank God today that the end of boko haram is very close. We have done sufficiently and we are winning the war. It is just left for the people that took over from us to complete the job,” he said.

While noting that most of the terrorists were teenagers not more than 15 years of age, ‎Amosu advised that young people should not be neglected to avoid their becoming ready recruits for such groups.

“We should not neglect our youths and get them into the hands of terrorists. We are going to concentrate on making sure that our (Badagry) youths become educated and stakeholders in the Nigerian equation.

”We must set up a programme where we can give our youths the opportunity to be able to serve at the state and federal level,” he said, commanding the monarch, Oba Aholu Menu-Toyi 1‎ for the grand reception and chieftaincy title conferred on him.

For serving Air Force personnel, Amosu urged them to remain hard-working and committed in their service to the nation.

”This should be the guiding principle from now on. We have started to see the result of hardwork,” he said.
