Insurgency may linger for another 20 years in Nigeria – Chief of Army Staff
The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai has said without cooperation of all citizens, terrorism might linger in Nigeria for another 20 years.
Buratai stated this Tuesday on his verified Facebook page barely 72 hours after Boko Haram terrorists slayed 43 rice farmers in Borno State.
He said there was general misunderstanding of what insurgency and terrorism entail.
“There is likelihood of terrorism persisting in Nigeria for another 20 years.
“It only depends on the level of escalation and the appropriate responses by all stakeholders both civil and military authorities. Also by both local and international actors.
“Citizens responsibility is equally important and imperative. All must cooperate to contain the lingering insecurity. Let there be collective action and responsibility. Buratai wrote”
