Sokoto State - In order to win the war against terrorism,
Brigadier General Tasi'u Ibrahim of Nigerian Army insists Nigerians
should be granted the right to defend themselves.
He addressed the 1 Brigade's 2014 Officers Training Day in Sokoto, Sokoto State.
He
noted that this measure, among others, is being practiced in developed
nations of the world and should be adopted in Nigeria to win the ongoing
war on terror.
Other measures, according to Ibrahim, are strict
monitoring and severe restriction on the importation of certain goods
that might prove to be useful to aid and abate such crimes.
For
instance, insurgents are known for using motorcycles for their
attacks. Also, town planners who allow the erection of illegal shops are
of particular concern. Ibrahim called for urgent review of national
planning system, settlement patterns and borders.
The brigade
commander also suggested that national resources should be deployed in
earnest to address the ugly situation, as the army is just but a
fraction of the national powers.
