Nigerian Troops Battling Boko Haram Outside Maiduguri by MCdoc(m): 2:06am On Jul 04, 2015 |
Kano (Nigeria) (AFP) - Several "huge" explosions were heard on Friday night as Nigerian troops engaged Boko Haram fighters in a village outside the restive city of Maiduguri, a civilian vigilante said. "Hordes of Boko Haram gunmen are currently locked in fierce battle with Nigerian troops in Zabarmari village, 10 kilometres (six miles) outside Maiduguri," vigilante Danlami Ajaokuta told AFP. "We have been hearing huge explosions coming from Zabarmari since 8:00 pm (1900 GMT) as troops fought to push back Boko Haram gunmen who are trying to invade the city," he said. "There have so far been more than 10 explosions," he said, adding that frightened residents of Zabarmari had fled to Maiduguri. He said civilian vigilante fighters who have been assisting the military to battle the insurgents were "on alert and ready for any eventuality." Zanna Shehuri, a Maiduguri resident, told AFP the Islamists were not finding it easy to enter the city. "The city is tense following news that Boko Haram are now in Zabarmari trying to come into Maiduguri but are are facing stiff resistance from soldiers," he said. "From here we can hear explosions coming from the direction of Zabarmari. I spoke to my cousin who lives there on the phone and he told me he and his family are on their way to Maiduguri. He said everybody was fleeing the village," he said. The latest incident follows a wave of attacks by Boko Haram militants since Wednesday that have claimed some 200 lives in killings which President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday described as "inhuman and barbaric "http://news.yahoo.com/nigerian-troops-battling-boko-haram-outside-maiduguri-vigilante-203543435.html |

GODSPEED COMRADES. Just respecting the present Gov based on its infantile stage. Since the Ex-Presido left, there have been virtually no fire fight with these scumbags and their technicals. The tempo of "silent strike", "unrelentless pursuit" we had during the 6 weeks extension that degraded and wrestled-out power from BH hasn't been sustained. DSS and NPF, you guys need to up your games. Your ELINT and especially HUMINT should be activated and active by now. Nigerian Military, Nigerians are Solidly covering your back.

Buhari should bring out his magic wand fast, he said he'll wipe out Boko Haram in two months, we are already in the second month and these Boko boys all seem to be waxing stronger. 1 Like |
