FIGHT AGAINST BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS GAINING MOMENTUM
As
the military is pushing for the final defeat of Boko Haram terrorists,
the fight against the terrorists in the north east is gaining successful
momentum with most of the camps falling to the Federal might.
The
advancing troops have captured the villages of Jerre and Dipchari and
have destroyed the terrorists camps located in those areas.
The advancing troops in the Bama axis have rescued yet another 62 people fleeing from Bitti and Pulka. The troops are also combing all known enclaves of the terrorists within Bama, Banki and Pulka general area. In addition, due to the offensive action of the military, another fleeing 22 women 15 men and 40 children arrived Bama today.

The
rescued persons looking haggard, dejected and obviously malnourished
are being catered for by the troops pending the intervention of the
National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA). Meanwhile the persons have
been cooperating with the military as they have been giving useful
information that is assisting our troops in their offensive operations.
The
military offensive against the Boko Haram terrorists is becoming more
unbearable on them as they flee their camps abandoning vehicles, flags
and foodstuffs at Kotambe Kote and Jere axis.
In
a related development, troops of 101 Battalion along with members of
Nigeria Police Explosive Ordinance Device (EOD) team, today successfully
detonated 2 bicycles laden with primed Improvised Explosive Devices
(IEDs) at Awaisari village near Alou Dam.
Meanwhile, 8 suspected Boko Haram terrorists have today
surrendered themselves to troops of 21 Brigade Nigerian Army. The
suspected terrorists are being investigated and screened for more
information.
Another
fleeing person, Bulama Bukar whose right hand was amputated by the
terrorists in Sambisa about a year ago based on allegation of stealing a
bag of beans was intercepted by our troops at Jebra bridge today with
his family.
Meanwhile

the bridge linking Maiduguri and Gamboru Ngala that was blown by Boko
Haram terrorists. The bridge repairs would soon be completed.
