The Nigerian Army has reiterated its stance that
no amount of distractions would deter it from ending terrorism in Nigeria by
December.
Maj.-Gen.
Yushau Abubakar, the Theater Commander, Operation “Lafiya Dole”, gave this
assurance while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Maiduguri.
General Abubakar was reacting to the recent spate
of suicide bombings by suspected insurgents in some parts of the country. He
pointed out that the bombings were aimed at diverting the attention of the
military from achieving its target in the ongoing anti-terrorism war.
“I want to assure all that for every second that
passes, we get more committed to fighting the insurgents; we cannot be
deterred. “We are doing as much as we could to ensure that we completely
eradicate the insurgents as quickly as possible because we are aware of the
timeline within which to complete the task,” he said.
He said that the military had already gotten
clues about those involved in the recent suicide bombings in Maiduguri.“We
searched the houses and certain items that we recovered at the vicinity gave us
some clues,” Abubakar said. He said that although investigations had commenced
on the clues, it would take time before reaching a conclusion.
“Investigation on those who we suspect are either
participating or hiding, fueling or conniving with those that carried out those
acts, is ongoing.“They will be exposed in due course,” Abubakar assured.
He appealed to Nigerians to be security conscious
to avoid future occurrence.“The citizens need to know that security is their
personal responsibility as individuals.“They must be able to secure themselves
and doing so means they need to be security conscious.“Any suspicious movement
within the environment should be reported to security agents immediately,” he
advised
Abubakar said that the military was working on a
strategy that would enable individuals pass vital information to security
agents without being noticed.
