Terrorists brandish brand new weapons, says militaryThe Defence Headquarters has called on the international community to uncover and block sources of funding for Boko Haram, Islamic State West Africa

Province and other terrorist groups in the country.The PUNCHAlso, the apex northern group, the Arewa Consultative Forum, supported the North-East residents as it expressed concern about renewed attacks by Boko Haram insurgents on travellers on the Damaturu – Maiduguri road.

It deplored the spate of attacks and killings by the insurgents in the past weeks, and called on the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , to fulfil his campaign promises. Terrorists in Nigeria blew up the Gamboru Ngala bridge in Borno State, killing about 30 persons on January 5. Besides attacks by the terrorist groups, there have been cases of killings and kidnapping by bandits in the North-West and parts of North-Central, particularly Niger State.Reacting to the EU parliament’s statement, the defence headquarters spokesman said the military had been innovative in handling the security challenges in the country “in the face of conspiracies to deny Nigeria requisite military ware that will enhance the fight against terrorism and insurgency.

The DHQ spokesman further said the military were able to overcome the conspiracy which sought to deny the nation the military hardware needed to fight the insurgents. Nwachukwu affirmed that there must be a global deliberate and conscious effort to deny terrorist groups of funding. He said, “Furthermore, all actions and utterances must be tailored towards supporting the national cause with a view to restoring peace and tranquility to our beloved country.

One of the residents, Abba Masta, who spoke to The PUNCH on Monday, said, “It is sad that it is suicidal to attempt travelling outside Maiduguri on roads as every road has been taken over by Boko Haram. The last of the safe road, Maiduguri-Damaturu road, is now worse than the other roads that have long been a no- go area.

The group in a statement on Monday by one of its leaders, Baba Shehu, expressed concern about the growing insecurity in the North-East in recent weeks, especially on the Damaturu-Maiduguri highway, where innocent travellers were killed on a daily basis; yet, the government chose to be silent without a proactive measure.

The ACF National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Muhammad Ibrahim-Biu, in a statement on Monday in Kaduna, described the development as unfortunate and worrisome.
