Buratai had criticised the military and other security agencies during an interview on TVC on Tuesday.
“I don’t believe security agencies can’t locate the bandits, if they can locate ordinary citizens and social media influencers,” Buratai stated.
In a statement on Wednesday, Omokri said Buratai failed to consider the complexity of tracking and neutralising terrorist networks.
According to him, even countries with advanced surveillance capabilities have struggled for years to locate high-profile terrorists.
Omokri cited the case of Osama bin Laden, who remained at large for years despite extensive efforts by the United States and its allies.
He said bin Laden was declared America’s most wanted man after the 1998 bombings of the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
Omokri noted that bin Laden continued to evade capture even after orchestrating the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States.
He said the Al-Qaeda leader was eventually located and killed
