The Nigerian Army says its attention has been drawn to a number of groups and individuals celebrating the routing out and decimation of Boko Haram terrorists in the country.
A statement by its spokesman, Col Sani Usman, said “So much as we thank them for that, it is imperative to state that we do not begrudge such persons their desire to identify and associate themselves with this success.
“However, the Nigerian Army wishes to disassociate itself from such celebrations and solidarity rallies. We also would like to advise that they should tread with caution as this could be distractive to us.
“The public is please informed that the terrorists are surreptitiously fanning out of their last enclaves in Sambisa to cause havoc or seek refuge elsewhere.
“Therefore, there is need for all to be more vigilant and security conscious to enable us clear the remts of these terrorists wherever they might flee.”
He reassured the public that the Army will remain professional and focused in clearing the remts of Boko Haram on the Nigerian soil.
