The Nigerian Military has announced the suspension of the operations of the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) from the North-East.

According to a statement released on Friday by Onyema Nwachukwu, a Colonel and Deputy Director of Public Relations, Theatre Command, this was because UNICEF had “abdicated its primary duty of catering for the wellbeing of children and the vulnerable through humanitarian activities and now engaged in training selected persons for clandestine activities to continue sabotaging the counter terrorism and Counter insurgency efforts of troops through spurious and unconfirmed allegations bothering on alleged violations of human rights by the military”.

Mwachukwu said the Theatre command would not tolerate “this kind of sabotage from any individual, group of persons or organization”, and urged all NGOs and members of humanitarian agencies to keep to their legitimate norms in the discharge of their acclaimed humanitarian duties.

“The Theatre Command Operation LAFIYA DOLE has observed with dismay that some of the activities of international humanitarian agencies and non-governmental organisations’ operating in the North East have left so much to be desired,” read the statement.

“There is credible information that some of them are indulging in unwholesome practices that could further jeopardise the fight against terrorism and insurgency, as they train and deploy spies who support the insurgents and their sympathisers.

“It is baffling to note that some of these organizations have been playing the terrorists’ script with the aim to continue demoralizing the troops who are doing so much to protect the lives of victims of Boko Haram Terrorism and safe guard them from wanton destruction of property and means the of livelihood. The Theatre Command considers the actions of these organizations as a direct assault and insult on the sensibilities of Nigerians, as they tend to benefit more from expanding the reign of terror on our people.

“Consequently, the Theatre Command Operation LAFIYA DOLE is suspending the operations of the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) in the North East theatre until further notice.

“This has become inevitable since the organization has abdicated its primary duty of catering for the wellbeing of children and the vulnerable through humanitarian activities and now engaged in training selected persons for clandestine activities to continue sabotaging the counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency efforts of troops through spurious and unconfirmed allegations bothering on alleged violations of human rights by the military.
“Information within the reach of this Command specifically indicates that the organization commenced the said training on Wednesday 12 December 2018 at the Ministry of Finance Conference Hall, Musa Usman Secretariat, Maiduguri and ended on 13 Thursday December 2018. The Theatre command will not tolerate this kind of sabotage from any individual, group of persons or organisation.

More and more problems

Let's await the response from UNICEF to know what actually transpired

The Red Cross should be on alert for their hammer too.

I suspect that the military isn't comfortable any longer with the leak of information as regards their unending engagement wit the Boko Haram.

Nigeria military are full of shithead's. The reasons they are suspending unicef,is like Buhari blaming Nigerians when his unable to sex his wife at night! God save us from this cursed souls!

Gradually Nigeria under buhari is becoming a pariah state. God will not allow this Sudanese slowpoke come back next year.

Buhari is digging deeper into his eventual disgrace like I promised a week ago .. so because the UNICEF is picking up data of humans rights abuse by the Buhari govt Buhari now wants them out ..I have always reiterated Buhari is one of the worst human being to ever roam this earth, the wickedness in his heart coupled with the staggering stupidity makes him a very dangerous being

When you leave your opponent and start attacking spectators.

So the humanitarian UN body have suddenly become an enemy sabotaging the military Ops because of its persistent denouncing of its human rights abuses? What about the so called de-radicalized BH members being integrated into the army

Same issue wherein the US, ICR, Amnesty International and other global humanitarian bodies have consistently accused the military of as well?

So how will the military be able to rehabilitate the vulnerable & displaced victims of BH onslaught who are mainly children and women @ same time battling with the demands of a never ending counter-insurgency war in a region with an already terrible maternal-child morbidity/mortality rate?

The army should not send a wrong signal to the world by accepting that it have become a fascist body as well because UNICEF is working in all UN member states

Who now feeds the children.?

Hunger go kill all those children quick quick.

I see kwashiorkor on Biafran scale.

I wonder which is more credible between the government and Unicef

Simply because they are telling you the truth of raping/illegal extortion, you are sacking them?
Sack Boko haram and stop ranting nonsense

UNICEF used the conference hall of ministry of finance to train spies? This lies is too much.

chinjo:
UNICEF is used the conference hall of ministry of finance to train spies? This lies is too much.

The thing tire me with these lies from Nigerian Army. There's no difference between Nigerian Army and Lie Mohammed

Hmmm...

This is obviously in reaction to UNICEF's recent report on the statistics/rate of malnutrition amongst kids.

The honest truth is, if unicef cooperated and kept mum, this wouldn't have happened and they in cohort with the military hierarchy will continue in their un-ending projects of helping the at-risk kids while the military is busy funding a pseudo-war they really do not wish to end.

The military have got a point on this and it is nothing but the truth.

To understand this, ask yourself...why would these so-called humanitarian/intervention agencies come into a war-ravaged zone and proceed to continuously settle fo long-term plans. You'd see them renting a place for 10 years and expect them to pray for an end to such crisis which keeps them perpetually engaged, employed with huge allowances and unregulated funding?

Pooheads, even with the help of UNICEF they're dying in their hundreds, I wonder what will happen to them now.

If you are doing great, will UNICEF accuse you of not doing great?
