The Nigerian Army has advised international aid organisations to stay off conflict areas in the North-East in order not to be victims of the crisis. The Chief of the Army Staff, Lt. Gen.
Tukur Buratai, stated this on Friday when he received officials of the Medicine Sans Frontier, otherwise known as Doctors Without Borders, at the Army Headquarters in Abuja.
Buratai, who was represented by the Chief of Policy and Plans, Lt. Gen. Lamidi Adeosun, noted that humanitarian workers should avoid conflict areas because the Boko Haram terrorists carried out attacks indiscriminately. “We must continue to operate with understandings so that while you are providing succour for the people, you also don’t come into harm’s way.”The army chief noted that the military would, however, continue to ensure adequate security for members of the organisation to help them alleviate the plight of persons affected by the insurgency.
