Boko Haram: Buhari rejects 6-month rotation of MNJTF commander

President Buhari today rejected the proposed rotation of the Commander of the Multi National Joint Task Force, a team of military officers drawn from Chad, Cameroon, Niger and Nigeria with the main objective of fighting against Boko Haram in the region. While addressing heads of government from these countries in Abuja this morning, Buhari said the rotation of the head of the commander of the MNJTF will undermine the capacity the military capacity to sustain the push against the insurgents.


He advised that Maj.-Gen. Tukur Buratai (Nigerian), who is currently heading the team should be allowed to remain as the commander for the period of the war
"While I agree that this is a joint operation with shared responsibilities, I am, however, of the opinion that military operations that are subjected to rapid turnover of command and control structures, six months duration, as it is being proposed in the documents before us, do not augur well for effectiveness and efficiency. Such a process will undermine, even if it not intended, the military capacity to sustain the push against the insurgents, who also have the uncanny ability to adapt and rejig their operational strategies. I am inclined, on account of the above, to suggest for your excellencies’ consideration that Nigeria retains the position of the Force Commander of the MNJTF for the period of the war effort. This command will be to the effectiveness of military strategy, since Nigeria will be providing the bulk of the troops and the main theater of the war is on Nigerian soil.” he said
He promised to redeem Nigeria's pledge of $100m for the re-launch of the Multinational Joint Task Force which will be based in the Chadian capital, N'Djamena.

Humans and power ,people have been killed communities destroyed and what is important to them is who controls the the task force ,if men were God ????

BONARIO NNAGS said...

Wow! This is why we've been clamoring for this Change.
Been long I saw Nigerian president speak with so much confidence backed by experience.
Rotating the commander will undermine the stability of the joint force.

WHY HAS BUHARI NOT CHOSEN HIS MINISTERS?

This is june 11. We have an economy in d tank. Does he think he was elected to only be commander in chief? Why has d minister of defense not bn selected & not in these meetings? He is just behaving like a general in charge of d army & not d country. He cant even multitask. Does he know his job role at all? I pity Nigeria & nigerians.

Unknown said...

I agree with Buhari's decision. Taking the leadership role in especially West Africa, let alone, Africa is our rightful place, as we are after all Africa's largest economy and with arguable, one of the most powerful armies on the continent.
This is good news for starters after weeks (since his inauguration) of seeming lethargy. Having said this, the fact is the Boko Haram crisis is actually an operation masterminded by the very same people/nations outside Africa (using local pawns)to foment internal strife in the country for internal strife and destabilization to suit their nefarious ends. For elaboration on this--for those interested in the truth--inbox/email by first providing your email and I will send an expansive explanation for you to respond if you have more questions and need for shared literature on the matter

Change that has failed to appoint his cabinet and won't be able to for 2 more weeks cos National Assembly is in recess. Wat a change, being a die hard apc supporter has mumufied this Bonario completely! Wat do you have to say about them not letting d VP attend security meeting? You never comment in such posts I see. Oshi!!
