Chief of Defence Staff Christopher Musa
Chief of Defence Staff Christopher Musa has charged the Nigerian Army with the mission to locate and eliminate Boko Haram terrorists, emphasizing that every soldier’s duty is incomplete without neutralizing the insurgents.
The military leader made this statement during his address to the soldiers of Operation Hadin Kai at the Maimalari cantonment, located in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno state, on Wednesday, October 11th.
The Chief of Defence Staff encouraged the soldiers to proactively engage the insurgents, emphasizing that.
Don’t just deploy to the theatre and remain passive; actively seek out Boko Haram and neutralize them. A mission in the theatre isn’t fulfilled until you’ve eliminated at least one Boko Haram insurgent.
Our approach should be proactive, not reactive. Instead of waiting for them to attack and then repelling, you must proactively seek them out and eliminate them.
