Bad Roads in North East Stifle Military Operations, Says CDS

The Chief of Defence Staff, Maj-Gen. Lucky Irabor, has said that bad roads hinder military operations in the North East states of the country.

CDS raised this alarm at the weekend in Maiduguri, when he visited the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar Umar Garbai El-Kanemi, for a royal blessing in the counter-terrorism operations.

The General, who led the Chief of Army Staff, Maj-Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru; Chief of Naval Staff, RAdm. Auwal Gambo; and Chief of Air Staff, Isiaka Amao, to the Shehu’s palace, stated: “Until there is adequate provision for the prosecution of the ongoing conflict, it would be difficult to achieve the needed success.
