‘We’re coming for you,’ says COAS to Sunday Igboho.

Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, Chief of Army Staff (COAS), has announced that the army will shortly move against separatist agitators such as Sunday Igboho and Asari Dokubo.

Attahiru’s alert was issued in Uyo at the first Commanding Officers’ Workshop 2021, where he vowed that the Nigerian Army will deal decisively with all security challenges facing the country, including those faced by secessionist agitators like Igboho and Dokubo.

Attahiru assured the nation that the Nigerian Army would soon surmount attempts by some individuals to compromise the territorial integrity of the country by the declaration of sovereignty on behalf of ethnic nationalities in the country.

“The Nigerian Army under my leadership would remain proactive and jointly work with other security agencies to decisively deal with threats facing the nation.

“The Nigerian Army under my watch remains resolute and is poised more than ever before to decisively deal with individuals or groups that threaten the peace, security and stability of our great nation,” he said.

Attahiru called on participants at the workshop with the theme, “Repositioning the Nigerian Army to Defeat Contemporary Adversaries in a Joint Environment.” to commit themselves to the dictates of their duty to the nation.

The COAS said that he would continue to provide mission oriented training through workshops and build capacity for the military that would make the army dependable and feared by all adversaries.
