Troops of 25 Task Force Brigade under Operations Hadin Kai in Damboa, Borno State have thwarted attempt by desperate ISWAP terrorists to attack base
Director Army Public Relations, Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, disclosed this in a statement made available to newsmen on Sunday.
“This antic of terror within terror is being employed by ISWAP to discourage intending surrendering terrorists in their ranks. The latest strategy is not unconnected with the frustration of the group as top ranking commanders and members denounce violent agitation to embrace peace in recent times”, he said.
“The gallant troops of 25 Task Force Brigade Operation HADIN KAI whose superior firepower forced the terrorists to withdraw in disarray, ensured Damboa did not fall to their antics.
