Femi Adesina, Senior Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, has denied media reports that President Muhammadu Buhari said that the war against Boko Haram is over.


Speaking on Channels TV, Adesina said “If you look at the President word-for-word, there is no place you will see him say that (the victory) signposts the defeat of the Boko Haram, no! It’s an interpretation by the press. What the President did was to congratulate the military for taking over the last camp of the Boko Haram which is called camp zero.



What that effectively means is that Sambisa forest which was like the last stronghold of the Boko Haram has been effectively taken over by the military,” he said Adesina stressed that despite the capture of Boko Harams enclave, the war against the insurgents isn't over “There will always be bitter enders at any given time.


''Even as Sambisa forest has been taken over, you will still find some elements who will continue to fight and they will be taken out eventually. This kind of war is not one that at a point you will say because Sambisa has been taken over, its over for now, no! It is over when we stop having strikes and attacks,” he said

Weep not my friend
The ante dote is out

even without being told anyone with common sense should knw dat capturing sambisa does not mean the war against bokoharam is completely over.

I said they were going to deny it and at last they did. APC ! cannot be trusted especially when they issue a statement.

Buhari said...

Alright

As always, I knew a rebuttal would be published

Well said adesina

Food has landed for "them". No logical conscience.

This kind of war is not one that at a point you will say because Sambisa has been taken over, its over for now,

What kind of 419 government is this?
Today bokoharam has been defeated, tomorrow bokoharam has not been defeated.

You see ba?

Boko Haram cannot be eliminated in one operation. It will take years before BH will be extinct because even some criminals would be using the brand name to carry out their criminal activities.

Thank God though, the end of incessant bombings and raids have come.

I wonder how many dullards we're blessed with in this istration.

I just tire for some Nigerians oo. d fact dat Sambisa has been taken over by our military doesn't mean d war against Boko haram is over. These guys are scattered all over Bornu, Yobe n Adamawa even in Kano state and don't think dey will just give up like dat. They will still strike just to make a statement dat dey are still around. So to those mumuus saying rubbish up der, pls know dat it will take a while to defeat BH totally. We shud all encourage our military n FG to carry on wit d gud work dat dey are doing.
