RIP to the fallen heros.


This offensive in sambista have been on for months. Is the forest that big that victory have not be achieved yet.

Cybertext:
Yes It is quite big... the forest span over four states, and three countries... its said to be bigger than Lagos and abia put together in land size. Its terrain is very rocky, hence difficult for heavy duty artillery vehicles to pass through.

austentero:
Remember Sambisa is a dangerous forest with a very wide area. The battle is not supposed to be so easy but I believe NA is winning the war. Our collective prayers are needed.
R.I.P to death Gallant Soldiers.

SmartMugu:
Sometimes I wish an atomic bomb can just be dropped in the damn forest and the whole Sambisa story is history. All the soldiers trekking through it will be unnecessary, and insurgents burnt to ashes- unless there is something else needed from there.
The place is getting more popularity than meaningful places like Yankari Game Reserve.

Yea he's in NA, called him two day ago to know if he had started the due process of quitting to avoid a dent in his military record when he leaves and he was talking rvbbish.

Anyway, I will do my best with the process but to quit NA and migrate will be entirely his decision, not mine.

Imagine serving a country like Nigeria that doesn't declare a common holiday to celebrate its armed forces and veterans. Tufiakwa

Ecoplexus:
How many times will they clear this Sambisa

sammyomal:
This sambisa forest has a very large mass streching through 3 states in the northeast and neighbouring countries so its gonna be a bit difficult for our soldiers to clear the BH guys there.

Wizlove:
you're an idi.oot.Big one at that.

Cjrane2:
keep believing bro.

There will be another "sambisa battle next month and three soldiers lost their lives".
This war is so shrouded in secrecy, you are better off believing there was NO raid and this story is fake.Precisely why shecow always laughed at such reports because he knows nobody had any operation in sambisa

austentero:
Reports reaching us indicate that three Nigerian
soldiers have lost their lives in a bloody battle
against Boko Haram members in the notorious
Sambisa forest.
This was reportedly made known by the Army
spokesman, Sani Usman, on Sunday, December 6, in
a statement obtained by Premium Times.
The spokesman said the tragedy occurred following
the commencement of attack against the terrorists
deep inside the Sambisa forest.
Usman said many of the terrorists were also killed
during the attack, adding that several captives were
rescued by the soldiers during the operation. He
further hinted that three soldiers also sustained
various degrees of injuries in the various military
operations against the demonic group.
Below is the full statement issued by the Nigerian
Army:
Military Commence Strikes Deep Into Sambisa Forest
The Nigerian Army has commenced strikes deep
inside Sambisa forest which is believed to be the
remaining strong point of the Boko Haram terrorists.
Various units of the Army have advanced deep into
the forest clearing most of the camps therein,
rescuing persons held captive, arresting some
terrorists and destroying most of their weapons and
equipment.
Advancing troops of the Nigerian Army, supported by
the Nigerian Air Force were able to clear and destroy
Boko Haram terrorists camps at Shuari, Adembe,
Yerimari Kura, Yerimari Gana, Gonin Kurmi, Kore,
Mainya Kore, and Lopere. Additionally, the Multi-
barrel Rocket Launcher Regiment has destroyed the
terrorists camps at Dure, Dure Kore, Jokwa, as well
as several other camps.
The troops recovered foodstuff, motorcycles, flags,
Improvised Explosive Making Devices (IED) materials
and military uniforms. Among other discoveries were
the terrorists tunnels, weapons and equipment. The
soldiers also recovered 2,000 cows rustled from
various persons over time and rescued women and
children held captives by the Boko Haram. While the
animals have been moved to Kanwuri, the rescued
persons have been evacuated and are being given all
the necessary support and assistance.
During the encounter with the terrorists at Yerimari
Gana a number of Boko Haram terrorists were killed
and some suspected terrorists were arrested who are
being interrogated. However, a soldier sustained
gunshot wound and fracture on the leg.
Similarly, while advancing to destroy Nefari terrorists
camp, troops discovered and cleared 3 IEDs laid
along the route. The camp was successfully cleared
and troops have continued their advance while a
blocking force has been deployed to prevent
infiltration and possible escape by the terrorists.
Unfortunately during another encounter with the
terrorists along the axis of advance, 3 soldiers made
the supreme sacrifice, while an officer and 2 soldiers
were wounded in action.
It is instructive to note that the troops morale is very
high and being conscious of their set objective, they
are unrelenting in their determination to defeat the
Boko Haram terrorists.
In a related development, troops have also destroyed
Boko Haram terrorists camps Bulagaije and Disa,
Gwoza Local Government Area, Borno State and
recovered motorcycles, Dane guns and ammunitions.
Sambisa forest is the major stronghold of the
terrorist group which has claimed the lives of no
fewer than 20,000 innocent people since 2009.
Just yesterday, December 5, reports have it that
about between 15 and 30 people were killed while
over 130 were injured after a suicide bombing
suspected to have been orchestrated by Boko Haram
members at Koulfoua island on the Chadian side of
Lake Chad.
