Chief of Air Staff, Air Vice Marshall Sadique Abubakar has said that the Nigerian military is winning the war against Boko Haram.
Air Vice Marshall Abubakar said this during an inspection of logistics and facilities of the force ahead of the deployment.
He said “I don’t want to say that we are not winning this war. I think we are.
“What we are simply doing now is to re-strategise. We are going through all the activities that we have been doing in the past and the idea is to evaluate these activities to see the ones that we need to improve and that is why I am undergoing this tours of units.
“We started with the operational units, about 16 units that are directly involved in the war in the north-east.
“We understand that without logistics you can’t fight war.
“So, from what I have seen on ground, I have a highly committed personnel that are working to ensure that every logistic we need to execute the war in the north-east is giving to us.
“As a matter of fact, one of our platforms is moving out of Lagos to Yola by next week. Some of our helicopters are moving from Port Harcourt to Yola and there are a number of platforms that we want to acquire which we are forwarding to the Federal Government.”
