Lt Gen Faruk Yahaya, Chief of Army Staff, has asked traditional rulers in Nigeria for help in ending insecurity.

This came as he urged troops to remain cautious and aware of their obligations, stressing that the battle in the North-East could be ended with discipline and devotion.

Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, Director of Army Public Relations, said in a statement on Thursday that the goodwill of rulers and their subjects was vital to the military.

The statement partly read, “The Chief of Army Staff commenced an operational tour of the North East Theatre of Operations, where troops are currently leading the onslaught against Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province terrorists.

“The COAS arrived at the Headquarters Theatre Command in Maiduguri, on February 2, 2022, where he was briefed by the Theatre Commander, Operation HADIN KAI, Maj Gen Chris Musa on the current security situation in the theatre.

“He charged them to be more vigilant and alert to their responsibilities, adding that with discipline and commitment, the war in the NE will be brought to an end. He reassured troops that administrative and operational challenges confronting their units will be given the desired attention.”

While on the tour, the COAS paid homage to the Emir of Biu, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Mai Mustapha Umar, at his Palace.
