The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Farouk Yahaya, visited troops in Borno state on Monday, according to Africanews. The visit follows the death of 15 soldiers in a Boko Haram attack on Saturday. Gen. Yahaya expressed his condolences to the families of the fallen soldiers and assured them that the army would not rest until Boko Haram was defeated. The visit is significant as it demonstrates the army’s commitment to protecting Nigerian troops in the face of increasing violence in the northeast.
