Nigeria’s defense chief on reports of human rights abuses and security | boko haram
General Christopher Musa addresses the Boko Haram challenge, corruption reports and more.
For more than 15 years, Nigeria’s armed forces have battled Boko Haram and ISIL (ISIS)-affiliated groups, affecting millions and killing thousands. Despite government claims of “technical defeat”, rebel attacks continue, raising serious questions about strategy and accountability.
Nigeria’s Chief of Defense Staff General Christopher Musa talks about this and also discusses allegations of human rights abuses and corruption within the military and the challenges that threaten the morale and operational capability of the military. Meanwhile, political instability in the region, including coups and external influences such as Russia, has heightened security concerns.
