Total War: Massive Troops Move To Borno To Face Boko Haram, By Val Obienyem

state of emmerncyI was at Kaduna Airport today trying to board a flight, and behold, I saw large number of troops boarding the army transport plane I suspect to be Hercules C130.
I interacted with some of them and they said they were going to Borno State. They were in high spirits. I encouraged them, wished them well and prayed to God to see them through in the battle against terrorism.
I also saw movement of heavy ammunition towards Borno State. I realized it might be in fulfillment of the total war the President (Dr. Goodluck Jonathan) has already ordered.
Rather than speak disparagingly against the Army, let us encourage them. It is not easy to fight monsters; suicide bombers that are ready to die.
While you mourn the innocent ones killed, they only calculate home many people died with them in the anesthesia of prosecuting a holy war.
This time calls for Nigeria to become united like antibodies gathering to attack an infection.
