Following confirmed intelligence report on the convergence and massing up of dislodged Boko Haram terrorists at Garere village in Kukawa Local Government Area of Borno State, with intent of carrying out attack on some isolated communities, troops on fighting and clearance patrol Codenamed “Operation TIGER CLAW” on Tuesday 19th July 2016 swooped on the terrorists.

During the ensuing operation, 42 Boko Haram terrorists were killed, while unconfirmed number of the insurgents escaped with gunshot wounds.

Similarly, 38 women and 42 children held captives were rescued from the insurgents. The women and children were taken to the military medical facility in Baga for checks. They were further assisted with food and clothing.

The patrol team also recovered 504 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO) ammunition, 162 rounds of 7.62mm (Special) ammunition, 1 Land Cruiser Jeep, 34 Jerry cans of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) and Automated Gas Oil (AGO), while 55 Motorcycles were demobilized during the operation.

The troops have continued to intensify vigilance and maintained high level of alertness. They are making concerted efforts to clear the remnants of the terrorists in their area of responsibilities.

In a related development, suspected elements of Boko Haram terrorists at the early hours of today, attacked Bakin Dutse community in which they killed one person and injured 4 other persons. Unfortunately, they took to their heels on arrival of troops. The troops have continued to patrol the general area with the hope of finding and apprehending the attackers.

Similarly, troops on routine patrol in order to secure and make Kumshe-Banki road open, were ambushed by 4 suspected Boko Haram terrorists. The troops engaged them and 3 of them died as a result of gun shot wounds. The lone survivor is currently being interrogated. It is heart-warming to state that he has been making very useful statements that are very revealing.

Thank you for your kind and usual cooperation.

Kudos to the Army

Good they are constantly being rescued. We indeed appreciate the soldiers for their valour.

But more needs to be done as regards taking care of these people- the news we get from the IDP camps haven't been quite comforting.

Good one Nigerian Army but what about the chibok girls na?

Tank God for the 2015 general election, US will probably be talking about rescuing the whole Nigerians from the Boko Haram camps after conquering the whole nation.

No chibok girls among?

The poster above me and those shouting chibok girls I also ask you is chibok girls life more important than those rescued now?


if you want the military to focus on only the chibok girls and not to rescue the rest then why don't you take the lead?


You must know all lives matter too,these rescued people are also somebody's family too.

God bless those guys and the NA as a whole. It is a tough job, walahi!

Am beginning to doubt if these stories are true.

Today: boko haram holds no territory in Nigeria.

Tomorrow: 38 people rescued from boko haram captivity in a village within Nigeria.

Next tomorrow: boko haram is technically defeated.

Next: 100 persons rescued from boko haram captivity.

Are they keeping their captives in space?

These boko haram news no longer works for me.

More powers to your elbows..
