Boko Haram Can No Longer Confront Nigerian Soldiers – Major General by Obascoetubi: 9:42pm On Jul 26, 2015
The Boko Haram insurgents
can no longer confront
Nigerian soldiers in a battle in
any part of the country, a
senior army official has said.
Nasir Muazu, a Major
General, stated this in Akure
on Saturday at the closing
ceremony of the Nigeria Army
Inter Brigade Competition.
“I just came back from the
North East and I can
comfortably tell you that
Boko Haram cannot and I
repeat cannot take any
offensive attack against
Nigerian Forces, that one is
for sure,” the General Officer
Commanding 2 Mechanized
Division of the Nigerian Army
said.
Mr. Muazu said the
insurgents, who last year
displaced soldiers from
several military formations in
the North East as they seized
several territory, had changed
tactics to aiming at soft
targets.
“What the Boko Haram
insurgents are now doing is
hitting sub-targets which
indicates that their days are
numbered,” he said.
He assured that the country’s
armed forces are capable of
bringing an end to the Boko
Haram insurgency and that
the military had reviewed and
renewed its strategy to curb
the activities of the terrorists.
Although, the Army General
agreed that part of the major
challenges confronting the
country is the coordinated
activities of the Boko Haram,
he promised it would soon be
brought to an end.
Mr. Muazu also said that all
military commands had been
placed on red alert in order to
fight issues bordering on
insecurity.
“We are looking forward to an
Army that is responsive to the
society, that would respond
to the demand and needs of
our people,” he said.
“I want to remind all
Nigerians that this
preparation of explosives by
the insurgents is not carried
out in the open, it is carried
out in houses and hidden
places. So every Nigerian
must key into how we can
win the battle against
insurgency in the North East.
I think with that support, we
are going to make it.”
He assured that the Nigerian
Army would continue to work
for the sustenance of peace
and not deviate from its
professional roles of
defending the territorial
integrity of Nigeria.
