Nigerians have been urged by the Defence Headquarters, to ignore the
recent threat by terrorist group Boko Haram, against President Muhammadu
Buhari, and the Army Chief.
Dismissing the threat as a joke and void of substance, the Acting Director Defence Information, Brig. Gen. Rabe Abubakar, said the military had dealt with the insurgents in such a way that they had migrated to the cyberspace to make empty threats.
He said the latest video by the insurgents was an attempt to remind Nigerians that they once existed; and that their latest attempt only showed how weak the militants had become.
He said, "We don't have any comment. We know what we have done, and what we are planning to do. The only place they have agenda for now is the social media.
"The only ground the Boko Haram can go to hide and pretend to be alive is the social media because it is everybody's home.
"The so-called video is an attempt by the remnants to remind us that there were once some Boko Haram elements.
"The issue of the threat to capture PMB is a complete joke and a dream of the century. Therefore, the entire clip should be ignored as everybody is appreciative of our feat against Boko Haram.
"It is not just an empty threat; it is a threat that has no substance at all. It is a senseless threat from their imagination. Nigeria should simply ignore it."
