Nigerian Army vows to end terrorism by December

No amount of distractions would deter the military from ending terrorism in Nigeria by December, the country's Army said on Sunday.
Recent bombings were aimed at diverting the attention of the military from achieving its target in the ongoing anti-terrorism war, Maj.-Gen. Yushau Abubakar, the military commander in charge of northeast city of Maiduguri said.
Abubakar was reacting to recent spate of suicide bombings by suspected insurgents in parts of the country.
He said the military had already gotten clues about those involved in the recent suicide bombings in Maiduguri, capital of northeast Borno State.
"We searched the houses and certain items that we recovered at the vicinity, which gave us some clues," Abubakar said.


He said although investigations had commenced on the clues, it would take time before reaching a conclusion.
The military commander appealed to Nigerians to be security conscious to avoid future occurrence.
Abubakar said the military was working on a strategy that would enable individuals to pass vital information to security agents without being noticed. Enditem
