The Nigerian Armed Forces have renewed commitment to continue the ongoing coordinated joint assaults on Boko Haram in the northeast until their operations are totally impaired and collapsed.
Colonel Rabe Abubakar, Acting Director Defence Information, in a statement said, ”to this end, the coordinated operation of the security forces in the contested area designed to dismantle the technical pre-eminence and capabilities of the terrorist group would intensify because the masquerading guerrillas should not be given any breathing space to regroup and re-strategize their campaign.”
He said for optimum success in the counter offensives, the recent deployment of the 7th Brigade of the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) in the Lake Chad Basin would ensure a total blockade of possible escape routes in the area to forestall further infiltration of Boko Haram elements into the country and its neighbours.
The statement warned the Boko Haram sect to stop their mindless acts of violence and embrace peace in order that they might become useful citizens, contributing positively to the socioeconomic development of not just the northeast but the country as a whole.
