Muhammadu Buhari has vowed in Sambisa Forest on Monday that terrorists will never
again take over and occupy any part of Nigeria’s territory.
The
President made the vow when he declared the 2017 Nigerian Army Small Arms
Championship (NASAC), opened.
Represented by the Minister of Defence, Mansur Dan-Ali, Buhari noted that holding the championship in the forest was an affirmation that government was “resolved to stamp out all activities and operations of the Boko Haram insurgents from our territory.”
Buhari said: “This
championship is a showcase of the clear effect and degradation of the Boko
Haram terrorist group with the destruction of Camp Zairo in the heart of the
famous Sambisa forest.
“I
can say categorically that never again will Boko Haram occupy any of our land.
“I want use this opportunity to congratulate the Nigerian Army for this
achievement and reiterate at this point by noting that it is a case of
professional training that brought the Nigerian Army to this length.” READ MORE
