Abuja – Suspected Boko Haram participants have actually eliminated four members of a vigilantes group as well as abducted 4 females after assaulting Kutuva town in Borno State.
This has overshadowed a breakthrough whereby soldiers rescued by the terrorists from Batha village.
Meanwhile, a team of local vigilante in Damboa led by Sarkin Yaki Ali Gwoza intercepted some people along Njaba road, south of Damboa town while on patrol.
Army spokesperson, Sani Kukasheka Usman, said they confessed that they were Boko Haram terrorists group members that were compelled to join the insurgency against their will and that they were on their way to Damboa to surrender to the military.
“They attributed their decision to give up their nefarious activities because continued military onslaught and that life has become hard and unbearable for the terrorists generally,” Usman said.
The Army spokesman said a combined patrol team of 7 Division Garrison, 101 Special Forces Battalion and three Civilian JTF, while on clearance patrol, intercepted a vehicle suspected to be used by suppliers of spare parts and improvised explosives making devices to Boko Haram terrorists along Kayamla general area.
“The suspected suppliers abandoned the vehicle and fled into the bush on sighting the patrol team. The vehicle and its contents have been recovered to nearby military location,” Usman said.
