Nigerian Military Kills Many Terrorists, Destroys Bomb Making Workshop by Anasko(m): 11:24am On Feb 14, 2016
The Nigerian military on Saturday said it
killed 10 insurgents and destroyed a bomb
manufacturing factory near the country’s
border with Cameroon.
The Acting Director of Army Public
Relations, Sani Usman, made this known in
statement made available to PREMIUM
TIMES.
Mr. Sani, a colonel, said the military made
tremendous gains in the various sectors in
the ongoing fight against terrorism and
insurgency in the northeast.
According to him, troops from the 121 Task
Force Battalion moved through key villages
along the border and linked up with the
Cameroonian forces.
The villages included Mararraba, Angwan
Fada Dale, Wizha, Bokko Timit, Bokko
Nasanu, Bokko Hide, up to Ngoshe.
During the operations, Mr. Usman said Boko
Haram hideouts in the area were cleared.
“In the process, the troops killed 10 Boko
Haram terrorists and also rescued 45
persons which included 17 women and 28
children,” the army spokesperson said.
“The troops also discovered that the
terrorists cratered the road linking Pulka,
Mararraba and Ngoshe and safely detonated
5 IEDs buried by the terrorists.
“In addition, they also destroyed an IED
manufacturing workshop in the village. They
also cleared Sino village.”
Besides, he said the Cameroonian forces
knocked out gun trucks belonging to the
insurgents, raided and cleared several IED
making factories along the border towns.
On a sad note, the military reported that a
patrol team from 5 Brigade, traversing
Dogon Gida and New Marte stepped on an
undetected IED buried by suspected
terrorists.
Four soldiers suffered various degrees of
injuries and their vehicle badly damaged.
Mr. Usman said the wounded soldiers were
evacuated by Nigerian Air Force, while the
affected team was reinforced to continue
with the patrol of the area.
In another flank, he said troops from the 25
and 26 Task Force Brigades, in conjunction
with Cameroonian forces, carried out
clearance operation against the insurgents
around Ngoshe village.
While the Cameroonian troops carried out
the clearance, their Nigerian counterparts
provided blocking forces at strategic points
where they decisively dealt with terrorists
that tried to escape, Mr Usman said.
