Tuesday, July 9, 2024 - Chief of Defense Staff, General Christopher Musa, stated on Monday, July 8, that the recent b0mbings in Gwoza and Pulka towns of Borno State's Gwoza Local Government Area were intended to embarrass the government.
During a courtesy visit to Governor
Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State, General Musa assured Nigerians that the
perpetrators of these acts would not succeed, reaffirming the government's
commitment to maintaining security and stability.
He said;
“The armed forces of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria and other security agencies agencies are working tirelessly
to ensure that there is peace and security in the country. What had happened in
Gwoza shows clearly those that mean bad or evil for the country are not
relenting. And so, we must continue to work hard.
“It was a deliberate thing to embarrass the
government but they would not succeed. Recently, we were able to arrest persons
with IED equipment trying to blow up some installations. We will continue to
work heard. Our appeal to Nigerians is those people perpetrating this evil act
are within. They sleep and live within our environment.
“If we report as quickly as
possible, actions would be taken. Security cannot be everywhere. We are not
magicians. We also rely on intelligence we are getting from the people. That is
why we call on Nigerians that the responsibility to secure Nigeria depends on
all Nigerians working together with security agencies. We are committed to
ensure that is achieved.”
