The Chief of Air Staff,
Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, is in Lagos
State, as the military continues to find ways of meeting the December
deadline, to end insurgency.
The Air Chief said part
of his strategy was to ensure a good and healthy life for his men.
Air Marshal Abubakar
added that efforts were also being made to provide decent accommodation,
healthcare services and welfare for his men, as a way of boosting their morale
in the war against insurgents in north-east Nigeria.
He further said that
the December deadline was achievable and that the the military would perform
without any mercenaries.
Meanwhile, the Chief of
Army Staff, Lieut. Gen. Tukur Buratai, disclosed that the military was working
hard to succeed in meeting up with the deadline, in spite of the renewed bombings
by suspected members of the Boko Haram sect.
On Sunday, four suicide
bombers died in an unsuccessful attack to hit a target in Maiduguri, Borno
State.
The target, according
to the National Emergency Management Agency, is a military checkpoint at the
city centre in Maiduguri. But the terrorists barely reached the point before
they ended their lives.
