BLOODY: Troops Kill 2,245 Boko Haram, IPOB Terrorists in 90 Days

BLOODY: Troops Kill 2,245 Boko Haram, IPOB Terrorists in 90 Days

1.   The resolve of the armed forces is very clear and it is to destroy the terrorist and dismantle their military capabilities in order for citizens to be safe. Accordingly, troops are actively fighting in different forms and retain operational flexibility which gives us  the ability to respond to different events and to project forces  according to strategic needs.

2.    Indeed, the military has greatly degraded the terrorist, even though they are still present in the theatres of operation. It would take time and effort to completely destroy these terrorists, particularly as counter insurgency is akin to a marathon not a sprint.

3.   It is safe to say that the terrorist have prioritised their military capability over everything else. This is because  as our forces advance and clear areas in which these terrorist hibernate, we continue to recover weapons, explosives and IEDs which are indicative of the priorities of the terrorist. Nevertheless, we continue to wipe out the terrorist through synchronised ground and air operations.
