The December ultimatum given by President Muhammadu Buhari to crush Boko Haram terrorists in the North-east is looking highly unlikely as a result of operational, logistic and administrative setbacks that are beyond the control of the military authorities.
Findings have revealed that there is growing uncertainty about the deadline despite recent gains and the best efforts of the Service Chiefs, who have brought in new ideas and energy to the fighting troops. However, the earlier momentum is waning with the counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency operations looking like a stalemate owing to the change of tactics by the Boko Haram, the erratic attitude of Chadians towards effective take off of the Multi- National Joint Task Force (MNJTF) and dwindling supply of arms and ammunition.
THISDAY had reported how the alleged reluctance of Chad to station its forces along its contiguous border with other member countries of the Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC) was said to be jeopardising the effective operations of the MNJT, which was recently reactivated to checkmate the activities of Boko Haram Terrorists (BHT).
