BREAKING: Nigeria Reaches Ceasefire Agreement With Boko Haram
Alex Badeh, the Chief of Defence Staff, has therefore ordered all service chiefs to fulfill with the ceasefire agreement between Nigeria and Boko Haram group in all stages of operations.
The Principal Private Secretary to the President, Ambassador Hassan Tukur, met with Chadian Government officials as well as representatives of the Boko Haram sect in N’Djamena, Chad on Friday.
Fortifying the release of the 219 Chibok girls kidnaped by Boko Haram was a key item of the discussions.
The Boko Haram group was represented by Danladi Ahmadu at the meeting.
Boko Haram has said it is fighting to establish an Islamic state in Muslim-majority northern Nigeria.
The group has launched scores of attacks in the past five years, targeting markets, bus stations, government facilities, churches and even mosques. Militants recently took over some towns in the northeast for what the group’s leader said would be an Islamic caliphate.
