Nigeria not compromised by foreign troops on its soil - Military

Nigeria's military said on Tuesday said the country's sovereignty was not compromised despite the presence of Chadian ground troops in the northeast to fight Boko Haram. Chadian soldiers crossed the border from northern Cameroon to the Nigerian town of Gamboru on Tuesday after three days of bombardment of Boko Haram positions in a regional fight-back against the Islamists. They were also deployed near two villages on the Niger side of the border and appeared poised to cross into Nigeria to take the town of Malam Fatori, according to local residents. But Abuja's defence spokesperson Chris Olukolade played down concerns about the presence of a foreign power on Nigerian soil, and claimed the country's troops were leading the offensives.
