Troops
of the 8 Task Force Division of the Nigerian Army have arrested six female and
four male Boko Haram terrorists in Monguno and Nolwodo Malgori areas of Borno
State, after a tip-off.
It
was learnt that the 242 Battalion apprehended the suspects, who were also
believed to be Boko Haram members on Saturday. Foodstuffs and a sum of N63,000
were reportedly recovered from them.
This
is just as the troops engaged fleeing Boko Haram terrorists in three villages
along the Lake Chad, Borno State, during which they shot dead 13 insurgents and
recovered some rounds of ammunition.
According
to the army, the terrorists had a gun battle with troops in Chikun Gudu,
Tumbuma Karami and Tumbuma Baba areas of the Lake Chad, during which they were
shot dead, while others escaped with bullet injuries.
