There is no hiding place for terrorists and insurgent elements militating against the peace and development of Nigeria was the warning from the Nigeria military on Thursday.
This was disclosed to www.totorinews.com. by Major General Edward Buba, Director Defence Media Operations while briefing the media in Abuja on Thursday.
He said, “the aim of the armed forces in the ongoing counter terrorism and counter insurgency war remains to find and destroy the terrorists and their cohorts wherever they maybe hiding in our country.
“In achieving this aim, we recognise the need to continue to act and respond forcefully against terrorists.
“Accordingly, we are collecting intelligence, hunting them and striking locations in which they are confirmed to be hibernating.
“For instance, troops killed a notorious terrorist commander named Munzur Ya Audu in the North East through well executed operations.”
General Buba further revealed that concerted efforts are being enforced at rendering impotent the military capabilities and destroy the terror networks of these groups.
“Troops are also actively targeting terrorists’ logistics bases and other structures that have affiliation to terror groups.
The Defence spokesman also affirmed that during the week under review, troops neutralised 115 and arrested 238 persons.
