Boko Haram Is Defeated – Nigerian army

The Nigerian military has described reviews in a phase of the media that Boko Haram continues to be maintaining seven nearby governments in Borno state, as no longer most effective an attempt to propagate falsehood however a futile effort to deceive individuals of the general public.



The navy in a declaration with the aid of Onyema Nwachukwu, stated contrary to the opinion of 1 Buba Galadima in an interview that Boko Haram continues to be in control of 7 nearby governments in Borno, the fact on ground belie this as the terrorist organization does not preserve or manipulate any local government location in the state.

read the entire navy statement on the issue beneath:

the eye of the Headquarters Theatre Command Operation Lafiya Dole has been interested in a booklet inside the parent newspaper of 21 September 2017 where one Buba Galadima in an interview claimed that ‘Seven nearby Governments of Borno state have been nevertheless below manipulate of Boko Haram terrorists’; despite the fact that he failed to provide individuals of the public with the names of those local government areas.

manifestly, this sweeping assertion isn't always most effective an try to propagate falsehood but a futile effort to disinform contributors of the general public at the authentic safety scenario within the north east from a attitude of 1 who is naturally detached from the realities of the counter terrorism cum counter insurgency operations within the north east. it's miles very critical to set the document directly via making it crystal clear that contrary to his opinions, the Boko Haram Terrorists organization does no longer preserve or manage any nearby authorities location in Borno country or within the north east as claimed in the interview. these neighborhood government areas were liberated by way of troops of operation Lafiya Dole and the troops have continued to make sure safety in those regions after routing out the insurgents. As a remember of reality, locals were endorsed to go back to their groups to resume their vocations and ordinary existence.

it could perhaps be needful to refresh memories by recalling that previous to the inauguration of Operations Lafiya Dole, the entire north east turned into infested with Boko Haram Terrorists, who became emboldened to the volume of affirming a caliphate with headquarters in Gwoza town. All that have become records because the gallant troops of Operation Lafiya Dole got here into the theatre, progressively however regularly decimating the insurgents and freeing held territories in a sequence of well-deliberate and coordinated joint ground and air operations. certainly one of such essential operations changed into the Operation RESCUE FINALE, which routed the insurgents out of its tactical headquarters in Camp Zeiro in Sambisa forest and out of its so called religious headquarters in Alargarno.

Ever on the grounds that, Operation Lafiya Dole has endured to relentlessly behavior several different operations along with Operation DEEP PUNCH, CHIKIN GUDU Operation and Operation RAWAN KADA alongside the Multinational Joint mission force. these and many other operations have culminated within the degradation and incapacitation of the insurgent organization. reputedly, this is the purpose, the terrorist organization is striving to stay applicable with the aid of resorting to callously use ladies and kids to carry out suicide bomb attacks on soft and inclined objectives.

currently, Operation Lafiya Dole in its resoluteness, is carrying out precursor operations a good way to result in a very last assault to decisively and sooner or later placed an end to the insurgency within the north east.

speaking approximately logistical components, Operation Lafiya Dole often offers logistical aid and replenishment to very own troops deployed in all places and forward Operational Bases through the normal channels, using our primary deliver routes.

extra also, Theatre and formation Commanders routinely conduct operating visits to troops of their formations and devices inside the theatre of operation. consequently, the query of troops been inaccessible as portrayed inside the stated article, is an irredeemable fallacy. perhaps it is necessary to word that thinking about the vastness of the north east, Operation Lafiya Dole, apart keeping tactical protecting positions to dam the insurgents from get entry to to logistics, has also gone ahead to insert mobile Strike groups in the theatre of operations to correctly patrol localities as well as are trying to find out and neutralize the insurgents from their hideouts.

Suffice to mention that in the month of August on my own, a complete of eighty two Boko Haram insurgents have been killed in combat and 630 remote settlements were cleared by way of personal troops.

Our troops are tirelessly on the trail of the fleeing insurgents as devastating coordinated aerial and artillery bombardments are being unleashed on the terrorist group. Our troops are therefore no longer ready most effective to repel BHT assaults as erroneously painted in the article, but are alternatively tactically deployed to disclaim the adversary freedom of movement and get admission to to logistics.

unnecessary to feature, that a set of insurgents at the run cannot preserve or manage any territory. Boko Haram lacks the capability to hold any territory within the north east, consequently its mindless attack on harmless and inclined civilians with suicide bombings, most of which had been made unsuccessful by way of our vigilant troops.

whilst not trying to disregard the fact that because the fleeing faceless insurgents rummage for logistical replenishment, they on occasion mix up with unsuspecting locals and thereafter assault them. This without a doubt can't be defined as conserving territory, as an alternative, it only honestly underscores the want for different relevant groups to do greater to make certain innovative reintegration of the locals into their diverse groups.

without sounding conceited, it is worthy to be aware that the counter terrorism and counter insurgency operations of Operation Lafiya Dole inside the north east, has been commended within Nigeria and in the worldwide community, ensuing in several high degree official visits to the north east by means of countrywide and international bodies.

at the same time as assuring that our cognizance in Operation Lafiya Dole remains clear and could no longer be derailed, the general public is advised no longer be inaccurate by way of the insinuations and disinformation contained inside the said article as they may be devoid of the proper and practical impressions of the security state of affairs within the north east.
