The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, on Tuesday, said all that was remaining for the war on Boko Haram to end was for the political class, the intelligence community, Nigeria Police and other civil authorities to play their roles.
Speaking during the decoration of newly promoted 45 Major Generals, he said the military had played its role well and won the war by successfully degrading Boko Haram and reclaiming captured Nigerian territories.
He also said: “What is remaining now is for other stakeholders the political class and intelligence community to take up the salient aspects of this war to the remaining ill-fated insurgents.
The NPF must be fully on the ground in all the states in the North-East; civil administration must be fully re-established in all the local government areas. The civil authorities must fight the ideological, social and propaganda wars.”
