The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, on Thursday re-emphasised the commitment of the military to win the war against insurgents soon, insisting that the military is daily gaining more grounds against the Boko Haram insurgents.
Buratai gave this assurance while receiving five vehicles presented to the Multi-National Joint Task Force by Toyota Nigeria Limited at the Maimalari Barracks, Maiduguri.
He said he just returned from Gamboru-Ngala and so could tell Nigerians that the troops at the warfront were winning the battle against the insurgents.
Buratai said that the MNJTF needed logistics and moral support from corporate bodies and individuals to actualise its mandates. He therefore called on all well-meaning individuals and corporate bodies to emulate Toyota Nigeria Limited.
While presenting the vehicles, the Managing Director, Toyota Limited Mr. Kunle Adeojo, said the gesture was part of the company’s corporate social responsibilities.
He called on other individuals and corporate organisations to assist the military in its move to rid the country of insurgency and and criminality.
In his speech, the commander of the MNJTF, Maj. Gen. Iliyasu Abba, said since the task force was established it had been trying to actualise its mandate.
