The North-East Elders for Restoration have hailed ongoing military clearance operations across the country, saying that was why they supported the appointment
The group said that they knew that with his appointment as CDS, Nigeria was going to witness improved security, going by his sterling performance as the Theatre Commander of Operation Hadin Kai in the North-East.
The Elders in the press release on Thursday, signed by the President, Mallam Bello Katagum and Secretary, Alhaji Sani Sanusi, said that General Musa’s tenure as the Theatre Commander, Operation Hadin Kai, witnessed improved security in the region. They said further that during his tenure, people in the region began to return to their various means of livelihood as a result of intense military operations against terrorists.
The group said: “During his tenure as the Theatre Commander, Operation Hadin Kai, we also witnessed large number of terrorists and their family members surrending to troops of the Armed Forces of Nigeria. “We are therefore not surprised that he has begun to replicate these attributes as the Chief of Defence Staff.
