A lawmaker, Mohammed Ben Omar, who spoke on the development, said: “The resolution was passed unanimously. All 102 lawmakers present voted favourably,” while another member of parliament disclosed that the resolution authorises the country to send about 750 troops to Nigeria.”
A Statement from Niger’s Defence Ministry – “Our soldiers are not like Nigerians. They don’t run.” On February 7, 2015, Nigeria, Chad, Niger, Cameroon and Benin, resolved to gather 8,700 troops, in a Multinational Joint Task Force against Boko Haram.
“The pooling of the efforts and resources of concerned countries will contribute without doubt to crushing this group which shows scorn, through its barbaric acts, for the Muslim religion,” Niger National Assembly President Adamou Salifou said.
In August 2014, nearly 500 Nigerian soldiers reportedly fled to neighbouring Cameroon following heavy fighting with Boko Haram militants amid claims the government troops were under-equipped to fight the jihadists. Nigeria’s Defence Ministry defended the move and referred to the fleeing soldiers decision as a “Tactical manoeuvre”.
