The Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations, Amina Mohammed, on Thursday said despite the successes of the ongoing
military counterinsurgency operations in North - east Nigeria, the Boko Haram war is not over yet.
The
military's
counterinsurgency strategy, FM 3 - 24, promulgated by Petraeus in 2006, calls for securing the population from insurgents, and it suggests a troop density of 20 to 25 counterinsurgents for every 1,000 residents in an area of
operation.
