About 24 hours after Boko Haram terrorists invaded and took over
the town of Chibok in Borno State, soldiers of the 7 Division Nigeria
army had yesterday moved in and retrieved the seized community
after a fierce battle that dislodged the insurgents, sources said.
According to villagers around Chibok town, a large deployment of
soldiers were seen moving in from the direction of Damboa on
Saturday morning.
“We saw large number of trucks filled with uniformed personnel
moving towards Chibok; initially, we were scared but later realised
they were soldiers as they did not harass us like the Boko Haram
gunmen usually do”, said the source who spoke on phone.
The source said they continued to hear sounds of gun shots and
explosion echoing in from the direction of Chibok.
A top military source, who doesn’t wish to be named also
confirmed the development to LEADERSHIP Sunday on phone.
“We have taken back Chibok town from the insurgents after some
few hours of engagement with them. We have since sent them
parking from the town; it is now safe for people to return to their
homes”.
The security source declined going into details of how the operation
went and the possible number of casualty possibly recorded.

Good news. Hope it is the truth though.

We hope so too

Good news..önly a matter of time before BH becomes history....God bless nigeria.God bless nigerian army...

I love the rapid response of the army this time around!

Big ups to the soldiers, but we need to even reclaim Sambisa also!

Whenever America conquers Isis, we shall conquer bokoharam....its here to stay. Terror is part of the challenge of the age.

go back to chibok at ur own peril

I pray it is true. the end has come for these islamists

Okay.. they should make sure these towns are not taken again

What is all this back and forth movement?

Honestly...... Everything just looks like a game.

DHQ/Olukolade has been talking less recently, which is commendable as they need to do more work than talk.

[size=21pt]Eeyaaa . . . the APC janjaweeeds will not be happy with this news[/size]

These soilders are dying everyday trying to keep us safe and all we do is to criticize them and threaten them with ICC and Amnesty Intl. Theses are the problems: APC, Tinubu, GMB, NYAKO, Chad, Ali modu Sheriff, sahara reporters, ereporters, punch, ACF, Northern Elders and THE Nation newspaper

We shouldn't be celebrating dz becuase it only shows our collective failure in allowing bokoharam to capture the town

kudos to our khaki boys, wishing them more success in their campaign.

Only for them to lose it in another few days. The problem is we do not have the personnel to hold recovered Towns. I was Watching Al-jazeera yesterday and some analyst said the Iraqi Army needs about 80,000 troops to hold Towns and territories recovered from ISIS. Do we have 80,000 troops to hold all the areas in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa State.

If NO is the Answer, then this victory would be a hollow victory. It would not worth the paper it is written on!!!!

Dear Naija... I dont even understand if its a CALL OF DUTY or reality... God bless our soldiers!!!
