The Nigerian Army on Sunday said its operatives killed 105 Boko Haram insurgents during its operations in Yobe State.
The acting director of army public relations, Sagir Musa, in a statement circulated to journalists in Damaturu, said the operations took place at the outskirts of Buni Gari village in Yobe. He said the insurgents were planning “a heavy onslaught on the village”.
Buni Gari is less that 7 km from the 27 Task Force Brigade in Buni Yadi which also accommodates the Nigerian Army Special Forces School.
Mr Musa, a colonel, said the troops of Sector 2 of Operation Lafiya Dole, led by a brigadier general, Lawrence Araba, “followed a credible lead that led to the decimation of the Boko Haram/ISWAP Terrorists”.
