Buratai denies Boko Haram humanitarian assistance to Borno/Yobe communities
Buratai made the declaration on Monday in an interaction with journalists after he paid a courtesy visit to Governor Babagana Umara at Government House, Maiduguri on Monday. He charged communities to expose bad eggs within the communities, just like he challenged those propagating such claims to come up with facts to substantiate their claims.
“I don’t believe that these Boko Haram terrorists are building bore holes. Where will they get the drilling machine to move around without being identified? Where are they getting the resources. It is just mere propaganda. His words: “Military operations are classified. We’re strategizing and I assure you that we are containing the menace to the barest minimum.
“But then, the way we were before in these areas is not obtainable now”. He admitted that military operations cannot be carried out without loses, alleging that most of the media reports often exaggerate casualties and are not satisfied what the official figures that the military usually give them.
