Mixed reactions have continued to trail the Federal Government claims that it has reached a ceasefire agreement with the Islamist group, Boko Haram.

According to the reports, military sources said that the intelligence reports in their possession indicate that  Boko Haram was plotting deadly attacks across the northern part of the country.

“Boko Haram is planning simultaneous and co-ordinated attacks in Adamawa, Bauchi, Borno, Yobe, Gombe and Taraba states, the sources said, pointing out that the Islamic group had plans to further carry out the same pattern of attacks in Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, apart from Plateau, Benue and Niger states, using several fronts and disguises in a bid to create serious instability in the country.

 “We are in receipt of intelligence reports heralding simultaneous attacks across the north with the aim of bringing the region down at a go. They intend to make it wide and to stretch us beyond capacity with deadly attacks across the north. We are in receipt of other details about their fortified capacity and movement across Mali, Niger, Libya, Somalia, Cameroon and Chadian axes to get us on all angles.

“Many confessions of those we arrested at different battle zones and entry points into the country corresponded with the intelligence reports at hand,” the sources said.

On October 17, it was reported that the Federal Government’s announced that it has reached a cease fire deal with Boko Haram to secure the release of the over 200 abducted Chibok girls.

However, since the announcement was made, there has been no sign of the girls being released as the sect carried out another attack after the ceasefire deal with the federal government.
