The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt. Gen.Tukur Buratai on Sunday said the Army under his watch would fish out soldiers whose willingness to fight

The Chief of Army Staff , Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai on Sunday said the Army under his watch would fish out soldiers whose willingness to fight in the on – going Boko Haram war has waned.

Col Musa said in a statement the COAS implored officers and men of the NA to feel proud of their patriotic roles in their struggles to protecting the nation’s sovereignty and integrity. “In my opening remarks, I observed how the attitude of quite a few bad eggs among us, whose commitment to our national/military cause has waned and led to setbacks in our operations. I am glad that this workshop has clearly shown to everyone that we have great reasons to be proud of our nation.

“The NA is already working to evolve and institutionalize formal mentoring frameworks to compliment the informal system that we currently practice. I have ensured that we take advantage of technology as force multiplier in our operation.

It's really becoming worrisome that the acts of the army chief is become more demoralizing to both the soldiers and Nigerians! For some it's been 10 years as an IDP ! MBuhari..maybe it's the man and not the strategy that's not working?

You should start by first flushing urself out of the system and allow nee and willing blood do the fight.

We have got to a stage where hausa/fulani soldiers be posted to fight Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen, all southern and middle belt soldiers should be posted to their home states,enough sending our fathers, sons and brothers to die a useless death.

Stop posting soldiers mainly of Southern and Middle belt extract to the war frontlines. Bigot

Do not defranchise them an updated firearm's before that.

This is your fault and not theirs. When the lack the equipments and motivation. How can they fight

Now, we can be sure of the true real soldiers.

Mr Man you are not serious

It's better to be out of nigerianarmy than to die for nothing. I perceive that 'The top officials' are making business of this whole thing. That's why Bokoharam can have first class information about their operations and lay ambush for them.Too bad.

Nonsense talk.

I will not join the Nigerian Army

You sit in Abuja, you demoralize them from Abuja. Yet you want them to fight in sambisa

Starting with the COAS HQNigerianArmy himself... He should be FLUSHED OUT first because he has been given $1b to buy equipments and fight the insurgents but.. It seems to be getting WORSE instead of Better! The COAS should be the first to be FLUSHED OUT

Please ask the chief of army staff whether the military men are well motivated and well equip in all honesty.

I hope you'll use the same zeal to purchase arms with which to fight and not leave them at the mercy of Boko haram with obsolete weapons.

But do that after you flush yourself

And replace with who, repentant bokoharam JTF

Pls do...alot ain't ready. Come down south and pick the ones here, including some rogue PoliceNG SARS

Do we still have boko haram that a very strong that soldiers are unwilling to fight them?

So there are soldiers refusing to fight the bokos? Are they related to the terrorists?

Replace the obsolete military hardware in your arsenal before flushing out unwilling soldiers.

stop this nonsense talk and do your job

I think Gen. Buratai should look inward, do soldiers have necessary tools to fight Boko Haram, including intelligence? Why is FGN releasing Boko Haram members caught back into the society to reinforce Boko Haram?

Please where do they sign up for flushing?

Why don't you encourage them, many have lost families, friends. Your approach on this matter is too toxic.

God is quarreling with this country.. I must get my ass outta here

No comments sir

Please do and add to your problem

Imagine

Fight with what?

That's good. They will have rest of mind

General, flush out yourself first!

U shuld b dat first Sodier dat should b flush out

I think they will be glad to leave,no one can work in a toxic environment

..,.,.....for the war you won 3 years ago

Comments like this are exposing the ineptitude of the military. Why not do it quietly without letting the public know?

Stupid Army chief. Why not talk about inadequate equipment to fight insurgents rather than morale of your personel

Mr Buratai, but some weeks ago you CLAIMED that boko haram sect had been wiped out?

The recruitment system in Nigeria is to be blamed.

Naa wetin those soldiers dey pray for sef. You dey go war with hunter gun and you dey pray to win the war. E no possible naa.

It a painful thing to here an old man like you to say u will flush ur children out when u no too well dat u are suppose to die before him

You people knows the main secrets

You would've said you will flush out soldiers who are unwilling to give themselves to be killed by Boko haram.

go and get them adequate amnitions

Why don't you take the lead to sambisa forest? Pass some Days and Nights with Soldiers in Sambisa to motivate them.
