Gudaji Kazaure, member of the House of Representatives for Kazaure/Roni/Gwiwa/Yankwashi federal constituency of Jigawa state, has accused Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs) of aiding Boko Haram terrorists.
Kazaure said Boko Haram flourish in Nigeria because NGOs sometimes donate food and medications to the terrorists.
Premium Times reports that the lawmaker made this statement while reacting to the killings of the soldiers at Melete, Borno state.

Kazaure said: “The most important is for Mr President to be aware of those NGOs that are giving medication, support, food and others to the terrorists.
“If we don’t stop those NGOs that are going into Sambisa and meeting Boko Haram, we will not succeed in this war.”
Kazaure also alleged that there is no unity between the Nigerian Army and Airforce.
He said: “There is a problem between the army and Air Force, it is not good for soldiers at the battlefield to take command from Abuja.
“The Chief of Army Staff and Chief of Air Staff should forget the problems between them if they have any.”
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai charged field commanders to complement whatever approach they take in prosecuting the ongoing counter insurgency operations with offensive posture.

Buratai gave charge on Friday in Maiduguri at the conclusion of the Fourth Quarter Chief of Army Conference.
He said such posture was necessary to instill fear in the terrorists. Buratai warned troops not to be deterred by the recent setbacks, especially at Metele, where the Boko Haram terrorists attacked troops of157 Task Force Battalion, killed 23 of them and wounded 31 other others.
