The Nigerian Army has said it is working on its own strategy to ensure the release of persons abducted by terrorist group, Boko Haram.

Buratai said the army will support efforts by the Federal Government to ensure the release of the Chibok girls and all other abducted persons.

“As for the army, we are working on our own strategy not only for the rescue of the Chibok girls, but other Nigerians that have been abducted by the insurgents.

“It is our objective that we rescue everybody,” Buratai said.

He added, “You cannot call these attacks resurgence of insurgency. We are taking care of the attacks.

“Whenever there is attack, we look at it again and see what happen so that we address subsequent ones.

“There is a conflict in which we have done very well. We have gone very far, we have put – terrorists out of our territory.

“They mostly come from outside our territory to attack our troops. We are working along with the Multinational Joint Task Force to address that.”
