Nigerian Army Kills Large Number Of Terrorists In Borno by Nobody: 12:02am On Dec 22, 2014
The Nigerian Army has confirmed the
death of a large number of Boko Haram
terrorists after an encounter with the
insurgents between Maiduguri and
Damboa towns on Borno State on Friday.

The military however noted that “a mopping
operation will determine the number of
terrorists who died in the encounter with
troops on patrol”.

The clash followed the troops’ move to stop
the terrorists who were in the process of
attacking the Power Holding Company of
Nigeria (PHCN) Engineers who were working
to restore power to parts of Borno State.

“A large number of the terrorists died in the
process while their IED laden Hilux vehicle
was destroyed”, the army said in statement
published on their website.

The troops also captured a Hilux vehicle
earlier stolen by the terrorists from the
Borno State Ministry of Education which they
have repainted and mounted with an Ant-
Aircraft Gun.

Other weapons recovered by troops include
Rocket Propelled Grenades and rifles, but
“two soldiers died in the encounter”.

Meanwhile, Military Engineer Troops, who
have been clearing terrorists IEDs and
effecting repairs on bridges, repelled an
attack while working on a bridge around
Husara, killing several terrorists in the
encounter.

A total of 4 General Purpose Machine Guns, 3
rifles and 2 Rocket Propelled Grenade
Launcher were captured from the terrorists
during the encounter.

One soldier however died while 3 others
were wounded in the encounter.
The army further maintained that “troops
are conducting land patrol of towns
including Mubi, Uba, Garkida, Muva and
others in Adamawa State as the advance by
coordinated air and land operations
continues in areas where the counter
terrorists campaign is ongoing to clear
terrorists operating in the state.
