Hundreds of Nigerians took to the street this morning to show support for troops fighting Boko Haram in the North-east part of the country.

The march kicked off at the Tafawa Balewa Square, Onikan, Lagos around 10am.

The Nigerian Army have recorded a string of successes in its onslaught against the deadly militant group who have terrorized citizens in the North-eastern part of the country since 2009.

President Goodluck Jonathan, who recently visited the troops in Yobe and Adamawa has promised that the military will record significant successes within the six-week time frame leading to the 2015 general elections.

A host of Cameroonians are also marching to show support for their troops.
