Military intensifies battle against Boko Haram, over 600 terrorists killed in one month

Even as there is little information flowing from the military about their ongoing operations against terrorism in the North-Eastern Nigeria, several sources have confirmed to PRNigeria that over 600 terrorists must have been killed in the last one month while other insurgents are finding life extremely difficult.

A top security officer said: “While the terrorists have engaged in guerrilla tactics of using vulnerable girls and young men for suicide attacks on soft targets, we ensure that their fighters do not escape as they continue to meet their Waterloo in the hands of the troops.”

In their desperation to create fear among the citizens, the terrorists are now deliberately targeting remote villages where their former members who had renounced the sect membership were taking refuge.

On the guerrilla tactics employed by the terrorists, the security source said “The major challenge we face is that of suicide bombers who might be operating with insiders within the communities. There is no way we can identify potential terrorists or suicide bombers from their faces or movements. Some of them look as innocent as new born babies.”

The Officer therefore urged the residents to muster courage by exposing suspects, strange objects or movements to the relevant authorities.
