Back Nigerian Army with prayers - Inter-faith group tells religious leaders

- A religious group has commended the Nigerian Army and its troops on the fight against insurgency in the northeast

- The group said the Army has put in much effort in clamping down of the Boko Haram terrorists

- According to the group, religious leaders in Nigeria should endeavour to back soldiers of the Nigerian Army with prayers

The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General T.Y Buratai and soldiers of the Nigerian Army have been applauded by a religious group for their efforts in clamping down insurgency.

A renowned religious group, the National Inter-Faith and Religious Organization for Peace (NIFROP) showered encomium on the Nigerian Army.

Speaking during a press conference on Sunday, January 6, the president of NIFROP, Bishop Sunday Garuba, said the Army's patriotism came to the fore during end of the year when it seemed as though the Boko Haram terrorist were on the rise again.

Garba said the damage the Nigerian troops inflicted on the terrorists in the past year might have been under reported.

He also said patriotic citizens that are interested in the truth are still able to read between the lines to appreciate what has been done on their behalf.

Garba said: "It is on this note that we identify with troops that have made great sacrifices for the safety and security of the nation, especially those that laid down their lives for their country."

“It is reassuring that the military has proven that the sacrifices of these ones were not in vain as they had shown the terrorists that the army of a sovereign nation is not to be toyed with by terrorists even when they have foreign support.

“The Nigerian Army has triumphed against the evil support that the terrorists enjoy from organizations that masquerade as good when the essence of their work reeks of evil," Garba said.

Saluting Buratai for his leadership roles, the cleric said the delivery of valour could not have been possible without the commitment of the commander, his officers and troops.

The group also vowed to continue supporting the Army in any way whatsoever, including prayers while urged other well-meaning Nigerians to join in the supplication as the troops edge closer to the finish line.

"Our members and leadership shall not cease praying for the spread of peace in Nigeria for which we know that a resounding defeat of terrorism is essential. We therefore pray that the military shall continue to prevail each time they engage terrorists in battle.

"We pray for strength of perseverance to descend on those that take to the battlefields to confront the terrorists. God will empower and protect them against the attacks from the terrorists.

“By the will and power of God, the Nigerian Army will be more victorious this year. The power of God will sow discord and splintering in the midst of whatever is left of the terrorists troubling the peace of Nigeria," he said.
