Since the Nigerian military killed Yusuf Muhammed, the founder of Boko Haram in July 2009, the Nigerian army has not been able to wipe out the terrorist group, but the Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai has an explanation for the resurgence of the terrorist group.

Explaining why it’s been difficult for the army to end insurgency in Nigeria, Buratai said Boko Haram leaders and recruiters live in communities and also mix with the local population.

He said the terrorists have been able to operate for many years because of their mode of operation; use of propaganda and hardcore ideology.

In an interview with Daily Trust, the army chief believes the war against Boko Haram has improved from what it used to be years ago, but admitted that there has been a ‘minimal resurgence’ lately.

He said, “Insurgency is not what you defeat and it would just fizzle out; they would revert to other tactics. That is terrorism.

As long as there are still almajiris in the north....the war against boko haram will remain fruitless...my thought.

You catch them....give them VIP treatment...... Said you have rehabilitated them ...
.and send them back to where they came from...so who is fooling who?
