Nigerians should be grateful security getting better – CDS Gen Musa

The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has stated that Nigerians should be grateful for the progress being made in the fight against insecurity in the country.

 

General Musa made the remark on Thursday while responding to questions in an interview on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.

 

He noted that the Nigerian Armed Forces have made significant strides, citing the arrest of the son of the Boko Haram founder as well as Ansaru commanders.

 

According to him, insecurity cannot be eradicated overnight, emphasising that no country in the world is entirely free from security challenges.

 

“I think we should be very grateful that things are really picking up. I don’t think there’s any country that has 100% peace.

 

“Sixteen years, we’ve been like this; it’s not something, within two years, that we will be able to stop. But I can tell you, we’ve made giant strides. We just mentioned the Ansaru commanders that were arrested. This is one of the most significant arrests that have been made; getting the two of them shows how detailed the planning was,” he said.
