Nigerian Army: Troops Repelled Boko-haram's Attack This Morning by Truepee(m): 7:33am On Oct 07, 2015
During the encounter our gallant troops successfully repelled the attacked and
inflicted heavy casualty on the invading terrorists as all of them were killed.
News just in reveals that Boko-Haram members attacked the 120 Task Force
Battalion, Goniri, Yobe State, Wednesday morning, but they were repelled by
the gallant soldiers.
This was revealed in a statement signed by the Acting Director Army Public
Relations, Col. Sani Kukasheka Usman.
The statement reads "The fleeing Boko Haram terrorists in a great sign of
desperation and to create an impression that they remain relevant, at the early
hours of today made a futile attempt on 120 Task Force Battalion troops
located at Goniri, Yobe State.
"During the encounter our gallant troops successfully repelled the attacked
and inflicted heavy casualty on the invading terrorists as all of them were
killed. On the last count over 100 terrorists bodies were seen. Unfortunately
however, 7 of our gallant soldiers paid the supreme price while defending our
fatherland, while 1 officer and 8 soldiers were wounded in action.
"During the encounter, the troops have recovered a sizeable arms,
ammunitions and other equipment from the terrorists. These include 1 General
Purpose Machine Gun, 2 Rocket Propelled Grenades, 9 AK-47 rifles and Belted
rounds of 7.62 (NATO) ammunitions. Others were various wires used for
Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), 7 Primed IEDs, different types of
Spanners and a Torch Light.
"The troops have consolidated on the encounter and more determined to
defend their location and continued to serve as blocking force to any fleeing
terrorists from the Nigerian Air Force aerial bombardments and other troops
artillery fire.
"In a related development, troops of 21 Brigade on fighting patrol from Bama to
Ngurosoye, have destroyed Boko Haram terrorists camps along that axis.
While on patrol, the brave soldiers came across some of the terrorists
hideouts that also served as fabricating area for IEDs and the terrorists’
training area. Another patrol along Bama-Kawuri axis discovered and
exhumed IEDs and wires for detonation.
"It is important to reiterate that the Nigerian Army along with the support of the
Nigerian Air Force and other Security Agencies would not relent in its
determined effort of defeating Boko Haram terrorists." http://adenaij..in/2015/10/nigerian-army-troops-repelled-boko.html?m=1
