Our Military is truly living up to their name!
They have successfully captured some members of the devilish sect, Boko Haram.The injured Boko Haram fighters were captured in some parts of Borno State and on the fringes of Lake Chad, military authorities said yesterday.Besides, weapons have been recovered by troops in collaboration with the Multi-National Joint Task Force.
The captives, who were described by a military source as “famished”, were said to be begging troops to spare their lives.But air raids on Boko Haram camps continued yesterday. Besides, security has been tightened in borders with Cameroon, Chad and Niger Republic to prevent the insurgents from fleeing.
“Scores of wounded terrorists who escaped from various camps under the fire of security forces have been captured in the fringes of Lake Chad.The captured terrorists, some of whom are fatally wounded, are already making useful statements to interrogators of the Multi-National Joint Task Force.Others were captured by troops in locations around Dikwa, Cross Kauwa, Kukawa and Alargarmo.
In their confessions, it was revealed that some of the camps have been disbanded following the directive of their clerics who declared that the operation of the sect had come to an end as the mission could no longer be sustained.
The terrorists, who gave useful information as to the locations of their remnant forces, were full of apologies and pleas for their lives to be spared, promising to cooperate.
They confirmed that starvation was a major problem, in addition to ceaseless bombardments on the camp locations even when they kept relocating.
They also confirmed that several members of the group have been wounded and no treatment was forthcoming. Troops have continued their assault on other locations across the states covered by the state of emergency.”
