The
 Nigerian military on Friday dismissed the Cable News Network, CNN’s 
report on the army as another orchestrated campaign to smear its image.
 
The
 CNN had aired footage of interviews with individuals claiming to be 
Nigerian soldiers who said they were being frustrated in the fight 
against Boko Haram.
 
The Director of Defence 
Information, Major-General Chris Olukolade, said that the Nigerian armed
 forces are without doubt committed and focused on the ongoing fight 
against terror, calling the CNN report a blackmail. 
General 
Olukolade said, “The CNN interview and report is an unfortunate effort 
to promote blackmail and smacks off an international conspiracy against 
Nigeria’s national security.” 
The Nigerian military spokesman 
then gave a reassurance that Nigerian soldiers were working round to end
 and defeat insurgency in the north-east.
