The Army Chief made the assertion on the side line of a meeting with a security delegation from the Atlantic Council, African Centre in the United States of America, USA.Buratai lamented that the role of the Army in the ongoing war against insurgency in the North Eat had been misinterpreted.According to the Army Chief, “We have some elements, who are within this society who are still supporting them clandestinely. So the support of every Nigerian is very key to the end of this terrorism. “There have been many misgivings on the role of the army as it relates to rights abuses, rules of engagement (as well as) treatment of civilians and Internally Displaced Persons IDPs.”“Hence, the need to conduct an assessment of the threats of Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria with emphasis on roles of (the) army, which has become imperative,” he said.In a related development, Buratai had few days ago, appealed to the media to support the Army’s relentless war against the Boko Haram insurgency.
