A suspected member of Boko Haram killed by men of the
Nigerian Army
Nigerian Army yesterday ambushed and killed many
Boko Haram terrorists in Borno State. This was revealed
in a statement by the Acting Director Army Public
Relations, Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman.
He said: "Yesterday evening remnants of Boko Haram
terrorists in their numbers attacked our troops location
at Rann, Kala Balge Local Government Area of Borno
State. The terrorists came with Motorcycles Borne
Improvised Explosive Devices (MCBIED), Anti-Aircraft
Guns and other weapons at about 5.00pm and the
exchange of fire lasted for some hours before they were
overwhelmed by the troops firepower.
"Unfortunately, one of the terrorists' suicide bomber
detonated himself at a gun truck killing the driver and
the gunner. The truck and the mounted weapon were
also damaged beyond repairs. In addition 2 soldiers
were wounded in action while 3 others sustained minor
injuries.
"The troops killed 7 of the attackers instantly while
quite a number escaped with gun shot wounds. During
clearance operations this morning, the troops
discovered 9 more Boko Haram terrorists dead bodies in
the surrounding areas. Therefore the total number of
terrorists killed was 16.
"The troops also recovered a General Purpose Machine
Gun, Rocket Propelled Grenade, ammunitions and
captured 2 of the terrorists alive.
"The bodies of the 2 fallen heroes and the wounded in
action soldiers have been evacuated to Maiduguri, while
reinforcement was sent from Gomboru Ngala.
"In a related development, troops have also discovered
and safely detonated 2 Improvised Explosive Devices
(IEDs) planted along Gomboru-Rann road. It is believed
that the IEDs were planted yesterday to prevent troops
reinforcement to Rann while the attack lasted.
"The Commanding Officer of 3 Battalion has visited the
troops and held durbar with them. He commended them
for their doggedness during attack and also urged them
not to lower their guards.
"Despite the incident, troops morale remains very high
and they have continued with their clearance
operations."
