Be Patient With Military, FG Begs Nigerians

In the aftermath of Saturday’s killing of farmers by the Boko Haram terrorists in Borno State, the federal government has implored Nigerians not to lose hope in the capability and commitment of the military to defeating the terrorists.

Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, made the plea yesterday in Lagos during a meeting with online publishers.

Mohammed said Nigerians should continue to support the men and women in uniform who are fighting the terrorists with determination.

He described the killings as “an act of cowardice and savagery by a group of deranged terrorists,’’ adding that “it does not reflect the progress being made by the military against Boko Haram.”

Mohammed said, “Going after soft targets is an act of weakness and desperation by the terrorists who have suffered huge setbacks in the hands of the military in recent times.

“The modus operandi of a losing terror group is to go after soft targets in order to stay relevant and it’s not only Boko Haram that does that.

“In 2019, Al-Shabab attacked DusitD2 Complex in Nairobi, Kenya, killing more than 20.
