Chief of Defence Staff, General Leo Irabor has said the military has succeeded in whittling down the capacity of the terrorists to initiate high level of violence in the country.
Speaking during the 2022 International Military Sports Council’s Day Run for the armed forces and security agencies on Saturday in Abuja, Irabor assured that the peace Nigerians yearned for many years would be the turning point this year.
He said, “I am hopeful that for us in Nigeria, the peace that we have yearned for all these years will be a turning point this year.
“Never again will we have the level of insecurity that we have had in the past and this is an assurance.
“I also thank Nigerians for the support they have given to members of the armed forces and other security agencies in tackling insecurity in our country.
“It is not yet over. We appeal for more support and I believe that Nigerians and of course, every other friend of Nigeria will support the armed forces to install an environment that is peaceful.”
