Sunday Adebomi, a Nigerian born United
States Army Captain has urged President
Goodluck Jonathan to suspend every form of
gentility and get down with the Boko Haram
terrorists group.
NAN reports that Adebomi, who hails from
Ise-Ekiti in Ise/Orun local government area of
Ekiti State and had been in the U.S. Army for
almost two decades, gave the advice on Sunday
in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital.
He said for the President to win the war against
insurgency, he has to shelve his gentility and
introduce a hard stand. He said the war against
insurgency could be won if the Federal
Government was determined, adding that there
were several ways of wiping out the sect and
stopping the incessant killings. He added that if
the Federal Government was ready to end Boko
Haram today it will be achieved.
“ Who are those in the sect that dare face the
government? But unfortunately, I suspect there
are some bigwigs behind these people. Mr
President is being too gentle in his handling of
the killings; but unfortunately, it is daily
assuming dangerous dimension; gentility cannot
win the war. Although gentility is not a crime but
Mr President will have to be more aggressive
because this is a security threat to the entire
nation. Mr President will have to take a stand on
the matter either to continue to tolerate the
sect and leave Nigerians to be mourning every
day with the several killings. Mr President
should give a matching order to the military to
wipe them off once and for all. Not until a
strong stand is taken Nigerians may not be able
to sleep with their eyes closed,” he said.
The U.S army captain, who said the Nigerian
military has been doing a good job in the
troubled states, stated that the military is
fighting unknown faces and faceless groups. He
said to effectively combat the menace, the
Federal government will have to first identify
the cause of the problem, the root, sponsors,
as well as where and how these insurgents get
their weapons.
According to him, the security agencies do not
also understand the terrain they are fighting
the war because most of them are alien to the
battle fields, adding that they know nothing
about the sect, and questioned how they will
fight such war and win.
Adebomi, who revealed that he led over 5,000
U.S. soldiers to war during the Pre-Mobilisation
in 2010, expressed optimism that the sect could
be wiped out. He said the sect meant nothing to
the Nigeria security agencies if genuine
commitment was there adding, all the military
need is the Presidential directive.
The Nigerian born U.S soldier urged Mr.
President to read the riot act to the governors
of the affected states or be made to face the
wrath of the Federal government, noting that
the President could also compel the governors
in the states to account for each soul lost to the
insurgents.

We are Soldiers We fight to create peace,We speak to give silence,We train to get fit,We kill to live, we live to kill, Confidence and respect is not sold in the World Trade Centre, it's earn by we. Who else could challenge in the face of death if not we, We do not see death as threat, it's an obstacle we'll cross so as to be a valiant compatriot whose name will never be washed away in the face of a million flood. Our home is away, our dull is the gun. What else could be so exiting than to defend your Fatherland. Though it seems we have no future, but it's sure we give future, Not only that, but also hope. We suppress those who oppress, to impress the depressed. Field we sleep, sea we sail, sky we fly, To tread on the wings of the octopus and give peace to our people. We will fight till we die, sail till we sink, fly till we crash to restore anomie to normality. Three in one, we stand as one, and together;we shall build a great nation!.God bless the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Navy and the Nigerian Airforce,
