A former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said that the fight against Boko Haram in Nigeria has lasted longer than the country’s civil war that took place between 1967 and 1970.
Obasanjo said his on Sunday during the ‘Toyin Falola Interviews’ conversation, which was live-streamed on social media.
He says that there is nothing wrong with Nigerian military personnel receiving training in countries that have solved the insurgency challenge.
Obasanjo says that leadership must understand that Nigeria needs a combination of training, equipment, intelligence, and technology to end insurgency.
