President
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has said that the nation is winning the war
against terror, as the State of Emergency declared in the three states
of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa is yielding fruitful results.
The President made this declaration on
Thursday at the National Military Cemetery, Abuja during the burial of
the gallant officers and soldiers who died in Operation Boyona, set up
to tackle the activities of Boko Haram insurgents in the North-Eastern
part of the country and also in peacekeeping efforts in Darfur, Sudan.
The President, who was represented at
the event by Vice President Namadi Sambo, said their sacrifices would
not and will never be in vain, adding: “Indeed, for us all, the loss is a
tale of regret but we take solace in the fact that we are winning the
war. They shall rest in peace knowing that.”
