Lt-Gen. Kenneth Minimah (rtd.) :Boko Haram A Tool to Advance Political, Religious and Sectional Interests

The immediate past Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt-Gen. Kenneth Minimah (rtd.) has stated that the fight against Boko Haram lingered for such a long time because it was used as an effective tool to advance political, religious, and sectional interests in the country.

Minimah however said that with strict disciplinary measures he instilled through various Court-Martials, he was able to turn the table against the terrorists that they could no longer mount an open warfare against the Nigerian military.

The former COAS made these remarks on Wednesday during his valedictory speech on the occasion of his Pulling Out Ceremony at Mogadishu Cantonment Parade Ground, Abuja.

According to him, the country could have defeated Boko Haram if there was a united voice in the counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency operations against the Boko Haram terrorists in the North-East.

He said: “Boko Haram may have its greatest impact in Nigeria but its ability to hurt other nation’s interests no matter the distance is real. In the last decade, we have seen the extent to which people who harbour evil against their fellow humans can go to inflict pain and death on innocent people.

“This is the time for all to rise in unison to not only condemn but take actions against the activities of the Boko Haram terrorists and other criminal elements in order to foster peace and security in our society.”

The ex-service chiefs should for now guage their statements and should not be releasing controversial statements that could end up feeding the growing dissatisfaction and indifference being exhibited by various ethnic enclaves within the country, towards the government. The Alex Badeh gaffe is still swimming the airwaves and now Minnimah is singing his own blues. They should learn that making such statements will only cast them more in an unfavourable light than achieving their warped intention of character sanitation
