The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar,
said on Friday the Nigerian military was winning the war against terrorism in
Northern part of the country.
Air Marshal Abubakar stated this while commissioning a
one-by-30 unit building at the 115 Special Operations Group (SOG), in Port
Harcourt, Rivers State.
According to him, the military had demonstrated what he
tagged as ‘strong commitment’ in safeguarding the nation’s territory, adding
that troops were determined to tackle terrorism effectively.
“Certainly, we are winning the war against terrorism in the
North East. If you look at where we are coming from in 2014, when convoys of 15
-20 Hilux vehicles were moving, ravaging and killing villagers. That is not the
situation on ground now.”
