The Nigerian Army has declared that the proposed Federal Government’s swap of abducted Chibok girls for captured Boko Haram insurgents should not be seen as a sign weakness or failure.
Speaking in Yola, the theatre Commander, Operation Lafiya Dole, Maj. Gen Lucky Irabor, said the Army is resolved to reclaim Boko Haram stronghold, Sambisa Forest and end their reign.
Irabor said President Muhammadu Buhari should be commended for his decision to negotiate the release of the missing schoolgirls, stressing that Buhari is also the President of the captured insurgents.
According to Irabor, “Operative objective of the military in its counter-insurgency operations derives from the President’s statement that the war against insurgency wouldn’t be said to have been won without the rescue of the Chibok girls.
“If in the wisdom of the Commander-in-Chief, he believes that the swap for the release of the Chibok girls is what is best, that doesn’t mean failure. How does this amount to failure. That I captured people who are the leadership of the Boko Haram. You should commend the military for doing that, it is not a failure.”
