Coordinator of the Phase Three Amnesty group in Delta State, Mr. Preye Ekpebide, who spoke with reporters after the group’s meeting in Warri, commended the Federal Government and the Armed Forces for the acquisition of modern warplanes, Helicopters, and personnel carriers that are assisting in winning the war against the insurgents.
Ekpebide, who applauded the gallantry of Nigerian soldiers and the Multi-National Taskforce, noted that that the Nigerian Army which was highly rated in the world was gradually redeeming its image, adding that the deployment of Army Generals to the battle field was a great morale booster to the rank and file.
The ex-militant leader said Nigerians wee happy with the recent onslaught in the North-East against Boko Haram and called on Nigerians to be patient with the military. He also called for prayers for the soldiers in the battle fields and urged everyone to assist security agencies in bringing insurgency to an end in the country.
