The Nigerian Military has confirmed it is set to launch “Operation Accord”, which is aimed at ending the clashes between farmers and herdsmen in the country.
This was announced by the Director of Information, Officer of the Chief of Defence Staff, Brigadier-General Rabe Abubakar in Warri, Delta State.
“Anytime from now, it will become operationalised and the issues of herdsmen going against innocent citizens will be a thing of the past,” he said.
Abubakar also vowed that all those held hostage by Boko Haram will be rescued.
“I am assuring Nigerians that the Armed Forces and security agents will never leave any stone unturned to rescue all those that have been taken hostage by the Boko Haram insurgents.
“The Nigerian military and security agencies are extending the hand of fellowship by way of collaboration, synergising and seeking your cooperation and understanding.
“Media is one of the key stakeholders and partner in most of the military operations in the Nigeria spectrum and has been an agent in fostering peaceful and harmonious relationship,” he said.
