18 Boko Haram Militants Surrender To Nigerian Military as Factions Clash in Borno TEHRAN (FNA)- At least 18 members of the Boko Haram militant group and their families surrendered to Nigerian military after bloody clashes erupted between factions loyal to the group’s founder, Abubakar Shekau, and the ISIL- backed Abu Musab Albarnawi in Northeastern town of Monguno, Borno state. “They are under custody of Monguno command and we believe the dual battle between Albarnawi and Shekau’s camps may have compelled them to sneak out and surrender,” Ali Mohammed, a member of a vigilante group in northeastern town of Monguno, said, 360 Nobs reported. Trouble started within the hegemony of the sect after the ISIL terror group announced Abu Musab al-Barnawi, the son of Boko Haram’s founder Mohammed Yusuf, as the sect’s new leader to replace Abubakar Shekau. Even though his allegiance remains with the ISIL, the undeterred Shekau insisted that he was still in charge of the Nigerian-based ferocious death cult. Sources with impeccable cognizance of the happenings disclosed that there have been deadly skirmishes between Boko Haram’s factions led by Shekau and ISIL-backed al-Barnawi respectively. Last Thursday, several fighters from Shekau’s camp were said to have been killed in two separate gun battles with ISIL-backed Barnawi gunmen in the Monguno area of Borno State near Lake Chad. A source, Mele Kaka, told AFP that: “The Barnawi faction launched an offensive against the fighters of Shekau faction who were camped in Yele and Arafa villages. “In Yele, the assailants killed three people from the Shekau camp, injured one and took one with them, while several others were killed in Arafa.” “The Barnawi fighters told villagers after each attack that they were fighting the other camp because they are killing innocent people, looting their property and burning their homes. Meanwhile, the Nigerian military has been declining to comment on the reported in-fighting when contacted by media.

EXERCISE STEEL DOME
The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) today simulated a counter terrorist exercise at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja. The exercise followed on the heels of recent terrorist attacks in some major airports around the world. The exercise was codenamed “EXERCISE STEEL DOME” meaning fortified arena, and the aim to ascertain NAF’s readiness to respond to occurrence of terrorist attack in any of the nation’s airports. The exercise scenario was based on terrorist attack on an airport, and effort to retake the airport from the terrorists and restore normalcy through insertion and extraction of Special Forces operating in conjunction with other organic security forces and organisations. The exercise objectives are to enable the NAF practice both individual and group skills in planning, coordination and execution of counter-terrorist operations, as well as understand the requirements and challenges involved in the coordination and conduct of counter terrorist operations in concert with other security agencies and organisations among others.
Meanwhile, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar has disclosed that there are plans to replicate the exercise in other major cities, such as Lagos, Kano and Port Harcourt, with international airports. Responding to questions from press men at the end of the exercise, Air Mshl Abubakar stated that “it is necessary for the NAF, in the light of the security challenges in the country, to evaluate her operational plans from time to time with a view to identifying any gaps”. This, the CAS said, was the essence of the simulating the exercise to demonstrate the capability of the NAF Special Forces element to mobilize for offensive operations at the shortest possible time in the event of any security breach.

The Chief of army staff (COAS), Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai on Wednesday in Calabar, commissioned the Amphibious Training School (ATS), gun boat hanger, as part of activities to herald the army’s ongoing training in the Niger Delta region, ‘Exercise Crocodile Smile’, in Cross River State.

Gen TOB Ademola, Buratai also used the occasion to reaffirm the army’s readiness to tackle any threat to the country’s territorial integrity.



The COAS, who unveiled the boats hanger among other instructional facilities shortly after flagging off the army’s ‘Exercise Crocodile Smile in Cross River State, extolled the virtues of the troops for their brilliant performances while the exercise lasted.

He expressed delight over the new facilities, saying it will go a long way to enhance the operational efficiency of the command as well as boost the morale of Nigerian army troops, in view of the ongoing exercise in the Niger Delta region.

“I am pleased with this development. It will help to enhance your operational efficiency, especially as we begin the ‘Exercise Crocodile Smile, in Cross River.

“You have done very well; you just have to keep it up. We must keep our country safe at all times, even after the exercise.

“We must continue to maintain our presence in all the creeks and troubled hot spots. I commend the GOC, 82 division, the brigade commander and indeed, the commandant of the ATS and all of you, for putting up a good performance, during the exercise”, Buratai said.

He expressed his commitment towards the training and retraining of the Nigerian army troops, especially for those operating in the riverine terrain.
