Buratai also urged the commanders to ensure a prompt and timely response to distress calls from communities in the besieged areas. The Acting Director, Army Public Relations, Col. Sani Usman, said in a statement on Monday that the COAS made the comment during a visit to troops of 103 Battalion Nigerian Army, Konduga, Borno State, on Sunday. Usman said the Army Chief also renamed the military operation in the North-East from Operation Zaman Lafiya to Operation Lafiya Dole as part of the efforts to intensify the onslaught against the insurgents in the area. He added that the change of name was to send out a strong message to the insurgents that they would not be allowed to perpetrate their heinous crimes in the region. According to him, Buratai used the opportunity of his visit to assure the troops of the Federal Government’s commitment to the provision of necessary equipment for the fight against the insurgency. Buratai, who briefed the troops about his vision for the Army and resolve to end the insurgency, commended them for their resilience and bravery.
