LAGOS: Army Arrests Many Dislodged Boko Haram Suspects in Lagos

Source: THISDAYLIVE

As the war against terror intensifies in the North-east, many dislodged Boko Haram terrorists fleeing into Lagos have been arrested, interrogated and sent for profiling by the Nigerian Army in Lagos.
The General Officer Commanding, 81 Division Headquarters, Major General Isidore Edet, made this disclosure on Monday evening at the decoration of 12 officers to the ranks of lieutenant-colonel, colonel and brigadier-general.

While seven senior officers were promoted to the rank of brigadier-general, four others were promoted to the rank of colonel and one other person to the rank of lieutenant-colonel.


In an interview with THISDAY afterwards, the GOC said, "We are in war time. The Nigerian Army is at war; so the leadership in time of war is what is expected of a newly promoted officer especially the one star general.”
