The resurgence of attacks by Boko Haram in parts of northeastern Nigeria has raised concerns that the jihadist group is far from being vanquished. Security experts are now urging a change in counter-insurgency measures.

At the start of this week, one Nigerian soldier was killed and another one injured following an attack by Boko Haram jihadists at a military base in Borno State, northeastern Nigeria. According to a source who did not wish to be identified, the heavily armed insurgents briefly took control of Mairari village, located 10 kilometers (six miles) from Monguno town, where Nigeria's military has a garrison. The village was recaptured after Nigerian forces deployed reinforcements.

The only strategy the Nigerian Army know too well is "Repelling the terrorists". They are always repelling the terrorists, which is a clear indication the insurgents are more offensive
than they are.

Changing strategy without looking at the root of their failure won't chnge anything.
Jonathan was weak but he dealt and demoralised Boko haram around January and February 2015.
Why couldn't the military under the current regime keep that momentum going? My verdicts are simple, the current military commanders are either sympathetic to the boko boys or completely clueless, any of the case is enough reason for the president to replace them asap. Keeping them till now is what I'll never understand.
