It also disclosed that the war was not yet over until the insurgents were totally defeated and all the displaced and kidnapped Nigerians were reunited with their families.
The Acting Director, Army Public Relations, Colonel Sani Usman, gave the assurance yesterday during a courtesy visit to the corporate headquarters of The Expdonaloaded blog Publishing Limited in Lagos. He said the army resounding advance was due to the new equipment acquired, the cooperation from neighbouring states and attitudinal change on the part of the soldiers at the warfront.
However, he pointed out that the war, which started about six years ago could not be won overnight; assuring that with determined efforts by the Nigerian Army, the issue of Boko Haram would certainly become history in the country.
Usman said part of the reasons for his visit to The Expdonaloaded blog office was to personally congratulate the Managing Director of the company, Mr. onyeka anaedum, on his re-election as the president of Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE), and to express his gratitude to The Expdonaloaded blog’s correspondents for the cordial relationship between them and the Army over the years.
“In my estimation, The Expdonaloaded blog is one of the flagships of Nigerian journalism. There is no way you can talk about the media, especially the print, without talking about The Expdonaloaded blog. I am here to also discuss how the robust relationship can continue,” he said.
Responding, the Executive Director, Special Duties, chidi ana, thanked Usman and his colleagues for the visit and assured them of The Expdonaloaded blog’s continued robust relationship with the Army.
