Latest reports inform that no fewer than 400 Nigerian
security personnel have left Abuja for Russia where they
are to undergo training as Special Forces to beef up the
country’s fight against terrorism.

According to Vanguard report, the security personnel, made
up of members of the Armed Forces, Police and Department of
State Services, departed the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport in a
chattered aircraft at about 5pm on Sunday in company of
Nigerian Security officers.

Also accompanying the military personnel are Russian
instructors who had been in the country to be part of the
initial selection process of the men and officers that would
take part in the training.

It was gathered that Federal Government’s decision to send
the security personnel to the European country was
necessitated by the slow response of Britain and the United
States of America to train Nigerian security personnel to
confront the Boko Haram terrorist group.

A source informed that the latest group of Nigerian security
personnel are joining three batches of their colleagues who
had earlier left for Russia for the training earlier this year.

It was gathered that the group would be in Russia for four
months before they would return to Nigeria early next year to
form a nucleus of Special Forces brigade that is to be set up
by Nigerian armed forces and other security forces.
Nigeria has been battling terrorism since the Islamist militants
group, Boko Haram, started plotting terror attacks across
Nigeria since 2009.

The insurgents are believed to have killed more than 5,000
people and made more than half a million to be displaced in
northern Nigeria.
