The Coalition of Northern Groups says Boko Haram insurgents and bandits are still on the rampage in the Northeast and Northwest killing people and destroying property.

At a press briefing in Abuja on Wednesday, the spokesperson of the coalition, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, urged the Federal Government to show courage in arresting and prosecuting the “criminals” and their sponsors.

He said the fight against the current security challenges in the north must be isolated from partisan influence.

“Despite repeated claims by the government that federal troops have decimated the capacity of the armed insurgents in the Northeast, the group (insurgents) has continued to show the capacity to launch attacks and overrun military formations, seize equipment and vandalise local communities,” Suleiman said.
