General Christopher Musa, the Chief of Defence Staff, has disclosed that some suspects who attacked two local governments in the state on December 24 have been arrested.


The Defence chief made this known on Monday on Channels Television, saying security agencies are working with local authorities in the state, to reclaim areas under the control of the criminals.

Once the areas have been recovered, Musa said those displaced from the two communities would be resettled back to their homes.


Reacting to the allegation that the military did not respond on time to the attack, the CDS said his men have been overstretched, and cannot be “everywhere” at the same time.

He said the intension of the terrorists was to embarrass the government, vowing that such would not be allowed to repeat itself.


“We are working with the state governments to identify these areas, this year God willing we will make sure bandits hold no community.


“I think the purpose is to embarrass everybody and to make the government look stupid and whoever did this, we are up on their heels and making some arrests.”


Recall that over 150 persons were killed by the terrorists in two communities, leaving many people displaced.
