He suggested that these contractors, working alongside the military and CJTF, could swiftly wipe out Boko Haram.<\/p>\n<p>He also mentioned their potential use in the fight against bandits in the North West.<\/p>\n<p>Ndume proposed this as a short-term solution, stating that the federal government could focus on recruiting up to a million young Nigerians into the military over time. For now, he believes hiring contractors is crucial.<\/p>\n<p>His call followed a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/03\/14\/photos-cjtf-commander-others-killed-in-boko-haram-ambush-in-bormo\/\">Boko Haram<\/a> attack in Ngoshe, Gwoza Local Government Area, where six farmers were killed, and five others, including women, were kidnapped.<\/p>\n<p>Filibus Yakubu, a local councillor, confirmed the attack and noted that many villagers were still missing. He added that despite their efforts, the military and CJTF could not repel the attackers, and among the casualties was a CJTF commander, Jubril Dada Zarana.<\/p>\n<p>The attack came weeks after another Boko Haram bombing, which claimed the lives of several civilians and injured many more. According to Yakubu, the terrorists targeted farmers while they were working in their fields.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cThe Army and CJTF did their best, but they couldn\u2019t hold the attackers for long.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Three women released by Boko Haram provided information on the recent events. The released captives said that the terrorists were still holding other victims. On Independence Day, a time typically associated with celebration, Yakubu described the situation as one of &#8220;sorrow, despair, and helplessness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He expressed the dire conditions in Ngoshe and surrounding villages, where residents face a lack of essential supplies. Despite this, they remain in their homeland, bound by their deep love for the region. Local farming, their primary means of survival, has become increasingly dangerous due to Boko Haram\u2019s activities.<\/p>\n<p>Yakubu concluded by appealing for aid, saying, \u201cOnly God can save the people of Ngoshe and nearby villages like Gava, Amuda, Chinene, and others.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator Mohammed Ndume urged President Tinubu to hire
