President Muhammadu Buhari has come out to say that the Nigerian Armed Forces and their allies are winning the battle against terror.
Buhari revealed this to the Graduation Ceremony of Senior Course 41 at the Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC) in Jaji, Kaduna State today.
He praised the collaboration with other nations in the battle against Boko Haram terrorists, saying it was vital to defeat the enemy.
He said, “Many of the security threats faced by Nigeria are trans-border in nature. That is why the West African sub-region and indeed the African continent must step up the level of military cooperation that currently exists amongst us.
“I am sure you are aware of the collaboration of the Armed Forces of Nigeria, Republic of Cameroun, Niger, Benin and Chad in a multinational operation to decimate Boko Haram terrorists in the Lake Chad Basin and other regions.
“The effort is laudable and has continued to yield positive results, as the war on terror is being won on all sides.
“I want to assure you that Nigeria, in partnership with our allies, will not relent until terrorists are completely decimated.”
“Your response to Boko Haram insurgency, banditry, militancy, kidnapping as well as activities of separatists and armed militias among others have been very commendable.
“The Nigerian Armed Forces have also committed huge resources towards stability of the West African sub-region and world peace in general.”
