UAG Drums Support For Military In Fight Against Insecurity

The Unity Advocacy Group has called on Nigerians to support Armed Forces of Nigeria (AFN) as they seek to restore peace in the country.

The group said the recent surrender of some Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) and elements of Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) revealed that the country is being made hot for enemies of the country by the AFN.

UAG in a press release signed by its Convener, Ifeanyi Aigbedion Thursday, also cautioned Amnesty International to stop boosting morale of criminals in the country by its continuous attack on the security agencies.

The group also commended the Defence and Police Officers’ Wives Association (DEPOWA), for the various skills acquisition and vocational training towards empowerment of women and youths to achieve economic prosperity of the nation.

The statement reads: “The recent surrender of some Boko Haram/ISWAP fighters shows that the Armed Forces of Nigeria is making the forest untenable for them.

“Nigerians must support and continue to back our military personnel as they seek to restore peace in the country.

“We use this medium to appeal to the remaining fighters to lay down arms and join the Armed Forces of Nigeria under the present leadership to make our country peaceful and economically prosperous.

“We use this opportunity to urge Amnesty International to stop boosting the morale of criminals in the country. These criminals commit atrocities hoping that human Rights bodies will come to their aid. This is the human rights they deny their numerous victims.

“We are glad to note the numerous achievements of the present leadership of Defence and Police Officers’ Wives Association (DEPOWA) within a short time. Without doubt, this will boost the morale of our military personnel and make them continue to give their best to the country.”
