    At the bi-weekly briefing on the Armed Forces of Nigeria’s operational efforts, General Onyeuko said the Forces’ operational engagements across the country have yielded significant results notwithstanding some negative incidents of the past week.

    He said the results are evident in the reduction of the spate of incidents recorded; the massive surrendering of terrorists in the North East as well as reduction in IPOB/ESN activities in the South East and economic sabotage in the South-South and South West zones of the Country.

    The General further noted that the Armed Forces of Nigeria remains steadfast in the fight against all forms of criminality in different parts of the Country.

    He said the Military High Command appreciates the continuous sacrifices of the troops in the various theatres of operation and salutes their courage, resilience and commitment towards achieving sustainable peace in Nigeria
