The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) yesterday said Boko Haram had been substantially degraded in the past three years as an organised sect.
It admitted that there might be patches of the sect still fighting.
The Chief of Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, made this disclosure at the opening ceremony of the 2017 African Partnership Flight (APF) exercise held at 631 Aircraft Maintenance Depot, Ikeja, Lagos.

He said: “The APF is a multilateral military to military engagement designed to enhance African regional co-operation, increase interoperability and build capacity in aviation.
“Globally, the concept of regions, forces have gained recognition as the best approach towards solving common security issues.
“It is, therefore, important that contiguous nations should pull their resources together to ensure a synergy in their operations. This is for the common goal of stamping out the Boko Haram insurgency in the North-East of Nigeria.

Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal, Sadique Abubakar (C).
“The NAF, which is one of the instruments of national power, is not unmindful of the occasional need for services to participate in both joint and combined operations.
“The service is also mindful of the effect and aftermath of insurgency with particular reference to the plight of innocent civilians, including women and children, who often are the unintended victim.”

Techincally defeated/substantially degraded... different words same meaning.. used 2015/2016/2017.

Meanwhile reno alledged that bokoharam had in the last 8months carried out more attacks than it ever had previously?

And why are we not speaking about out police women?, is it because its not our family. They are people's mothers and breadwinners of families..

Pls counter with facts.. dont be like garba shehu

See una lies again

Bokoharam that almost entered Maiduguri 1am today through Damboa road? Thanks to Civilian JTF these dudes are hyperactive sincerely.

Did you notice the white saliva from the edge of his mouth.... it's an indication of Lai Mohammed series..

keep lying
Na U n God get matter

Well, Faith is the substance of things hoped for...

From technically to substantially. Make una continue.



Genius J

Those in Yobe, Maiduguri and Adamawa can testify to this reality........................


Do you know that at a time in the past, there was no banks operating any where in these states apart from few in the state capitals? No schools operating, people hardly go to church, farms and markets again?

Do you truly understand what that means to the economic cum social well being of the people? Terrorism like any other vices can only be decimated and defeated but not wiped out completely since it is more of an idealogy that the physical war/terror we read about them


The military are definately doing their best

So many people trying to gain relevance. Must the Air chief talk? Why can't he allow the people to judge the situation themselves? Why the use of synonyms by different politicians to deceive people?

The thing tire me.

It is what all Nigerians sincerely hope for..

But sadly, l don't believe this farce..

There have been So many false declaration of peace in northeast only for Boko Haram to counter the lies with more heinous atrocity against innocent people..

Thesame old stories... Just from a different person
