A human rights group has commended the recent award given to the chief of army staff Tukur Buratai.
The group Centre for Social Justice, Equity and Transparency (CESJET) in Abuja on Sunday, April 30, told journalists that the recent conferment of the Brazilian Military Order of Merit Award is an indication that the global community understands that terrorism has been defeated in Nigeria.
ZENITHBLOG.com gathered that the secretary general of CESJET Isaac Ikpa said the chief of army staff has also demonstrated that terrorism and extremism can be degraded
Ikpa said the award given to Buratai by the Brazilian military is deserving.

He said: “The award is well deserved given the dispatch with which the Nigerian Army under General Buratai’s leadership subdued the Boko Haram problem and dealt with other threats to Nigeria’s safety, security and sovereignty.”
Ikpa also said the award given to Buratai has diminished all efforts to downgrade the gallantry of the Nigerian Army and its troops under the leadership of the current chief of army staff.
“We therefore advise that Intersociety and any other CSO that is contemplating intervention on this level should first familiarize themselves with the nuances of international protocols. It will upgrade their mental capacity to process and deliver the requisite appreciation for them to know that it is not in their place to, based on their narrow clannish reasoning, castigate another sovereign country’s decision to honour an achiever.”
Buratai was able to achieve this feat where others failed before him and in spite of the foreign support that Nigeria’s adversaries enjoy.
Ikpa said Buratai was able to achieve this feat where others failed before him and in spite of the foreign support that Nigeria’s adversaries enjoy.
He said: “The achievement was recorded beginning from a time when an ill advised arms embargo was in place against Nigeria.

“We must not forget that those who contrived the false reports that precipitated the arms embargo have an agenda in the first place.
“General Buratai’s success effectively truncated this agenda. Brazil recognizes this success as significant to the survival of countries that are the new economic powerhouses of the world and appropriately rewarded it.”
“It is therefore no surprise that the proxies of these entities with agenda against the stability of Nigeria are bitter. The Buratai led Nigerian Army has effectively prevented them from fulfilling their terms of contract that relates to destabilizing Nigeria.

The award was presented to Buratai after the Nigerian Army had announced Buratai’s arrival in Brazil late on Tuesday, April 25.
