"The cordon and search in
Baga has revealed some terrorists disguising as women. The searches are also yielding more
discoveries of arms especially bombs hidden in various locations, especially
Baga town. Apart from those captured in the course of fighting, many arrests of
terrorists hiding in the town are being made and troops are still busy interrogating
the suspects.
Meanwhile, in furtherance of the
mission to clear terrorists from all their enclaves by the military, the
Nigerian Air Force has stepped up its air bombardment of identified targets in
Gwoza, Bama and Sambisa forest, preparatory to other phases of the mission. The
air strikes have been highly successful as they achieved the aims, hitting
vital targets with required precision.
Terrorists are now in disarray as they scamper to escape from the impact
of air bombardment of their locations in the forest.
Having successfully liberated
Baga where the terrorists have been marauding, the troops’ attention has now
been focused on consolidation of the security of the area to pave way for
return of citizens.
