Buratai also said the Multi-National Task Force has chased away the terrorists operating around Nigeria’s borders.
The Army chief said “We are further consolidating
the successes by opening roads to allow people move about freely
without the fear of any attack. We will continue to do that. Yesterday I
was in Maiduguri and a day before yesterday.
“We have been able to open the Dikwa road up to
Gamboru Ngala. We must certify that all the routes are safe and to also
get people to be more confident and we have to assure them of that.”
He also said “Otherwise, virtually all parts of
the Northeast can be moved in but people are still apprehensive but you
can see that the Multi-National Joint TaskForce is operating in the
northern part of Borno and southern parts of Niger Republic and parts of
Chad. This where you see most of the remnants of Boko Haram are
concentrated now.
“But I must tell you that joint efforts are on
the way to make sure that these terrorists are further pushed away from
these areas. That is the clearance operation we are doing. I was in
Kangarwa just a few meters to the boarders and that is where our troops
have been operating and they would continue to advance to clear the
remnants there.
“It’s a joint effort now; you will see the Chadian, Nigerien, Cameroonians and our troops doing the clearance operations.”
