“When MNJTF re-operationalized with an increased capacity of about 10,000 troops, the Force Commander has since created a safe and secure environment in the areas affected by the activities of Boko Haram BHT and other terrorist groups. He facilitates the implementation of overall stabilization programmes and facilitates within the limit of its capabilities, humanitarian operations, and the delivery of assistance to the affected populations.
The operations of the MNJTF in close collaboration with national operations (OPERATION HADIN KAI – Nigeria and OPERATION EMERGENCE IV – Cameroon) have led to an improved security situation in the Region. Schools are reopening although on a limited scale, so they also are hospitals and markets, while commerce and agricultural activities, including fishing, are gradually picking up.
“Likewise, Major General Christopher Musa, who served as the 11th Theatre Commander Operation HADIN KAI, accelerated the amnesty programme for repentant terrorists. Under his watch, Nigeria took delivery of the Super Tucano aircraft from the United States Government, which has been used in bombarding terrorists’ enclaves, forcing many of them to either surrender or flee westwards. Under Musa’s watch, over 47,975 terrorists and their families have so far surrendered to troops, according to military authorities.

“We are optimistic that General Ibrahim and General Musa new deployment to the Nigerian National Security Adviser’s office and Headquarters, Infantry Corps Centre Jaji Military Cantonment respectively would benefit the host community and Nigerian Army as a whole.
