Hunt down Boko Haram, Chief of Defence Staff tells troops

Published by

The Chief of Defence Staff, Christopher Musa, has tasked the troops of the Nigerian Army to hunt down Boko Haram while at the theatre, as no soldier’s mission is complete till terrorists are wiped out.

On Wednesday, October 11, the military chief addressed troops from Operation Hadin Kai in the Maimalari cantonment in Maiduguri, the Borno state capital.

Musa believes it is unethical for soldiers to sleep in the theatre and wait for an attack before responding. According to him, any soldier who arrives at the theatre without killing at least one terrorist is incomplete.

The CDS urged the military to confront the insurgents

He said, “Don’t just come and sleep in the theatre, make sure you look for Boko Haram and kill. Anybody who comes to the theatre and finishes without killing one Boko Haram is not complete.

So you must make sure before you go, look for them, that’s the only way we can finish them completely. They should not be looking for us, we should be looking for them.

Do not go and sit down until they attack and we repel, there is nothing like repel, go and find and kill them.”
