President Muhammadu Buhari is seeking lasting solutions to the security issues in the country.
He has today jetted out to N’Djamena, Chad, where he will meet with Heads of State and Government of the LCBC, which he is Chariman, to review the security situation in the areas affected by Boko Haram insurgency.
About a 100 Nigerian soldiers were recently slaughtered like chicken by Boko Haram terrorists in Metele, Maiduguri.
Army COAS Tukur Buratai said during a conference in Borno on Wednesday that the military can never have enough equipment for operations.
“The fight against Boko Haram in the North-East will continue unabatedly. The army is collaborating with Chad and Cameroon, and we are currently conducting joint operations in adjoining areas,” the COAS said.
“No army can have enough equipment to conduct its operations. So it is incumbent on all commanders to know that we are involved in an asymmetric warfare which calls for dynamism and flexibility.”
The statement was despite the approval of a $1 billion sum for arms procurement for the Army by Buhari in April.
