Chadian Troops Actually Killed And Disarmed Boko Haram Recently by Nobody: 9:55am On Apr 11, 2020
Contrary to the press release which went viral on social media a few days back, in which the Chadian government via their embassy presented to confuse us that the pictures of the cache of weapons seized by Derby-Led troops were stale and were events which took place in 2015( before the APC took office), Chad actually carried out the attacks recently. Our government could prevail on deceiving Nigerians but the international communities and media who don't have anything lose or gain about our inept government would never hide the truth. In March, Chadian military actually captured and killed boko haram, also invaded their armoury as seen in the video and pictures which went viral. I saw lai muhamed last night on channelstv bragging and making empty vows that he would get those who were fond of spreading fake news....any news that exposes their weakness is fake, of course.

Amazingly, their damage control always exposes them the more. I remember when president buhari visited kebbi for argungu festival and a young man wanted to attack him with a knife. They quickly arranged for a guy who looked exactly like him to do the damage control. They got the costume right but failed to get the exact cap worn by the original guy who wanted to stab baba. I hope the young man is stil alive. Who knows whether APC in their usual habit compelled the embassy of Chad to make the press release to cover up Buhari's inept government and weakness in the fight against boko haram. Any doubting thomas should just read the below...as released by Aljazeera about the way Chadian govt dealt with boko haram, which our government found difficult to do after wasting billions of dollars on procurement of audio ammunition . With this proof, I smell a rat in the fight against boko haram in Nigeria by our govt and military. Lai Mohamed, you know my house. If you like, send your dss and other govt dogs to look for me. Awon agbaaya...grandpa lie lie.

Chadian troops 'kill 1,000 Boko Haram fighters' in Lake Chad.

Chad's army says it lost 52 troops during the operation against Boko Haram.

09 Apr 2020 GMT+3
The Chadian army says it has killed 1,000 fighters during an operation against the Boko Haram armed group in the Lake Chad border region.


Army spokesman Colonel Azem Bermendoa Agouna told the AFP news agency that 52 troops died during the operation, which was launched on March 31.


"A thousand terrorists have been killed, 50 motorised canoes have been destroyed," the colonel said, referring to a large boat also called a pirogue.

Agouna said the operation, which was launched after nearly 100 soldiers were killed in a Boko Haram attack last month, ended on Wednesday after the armed fighters were forced out of the country.

It is the first official snapshot of the outcome of Operation Bohoma Anger, launched after at least 92 soldiers were killed on March 23 in the deadliest-ever attack by Boko Haram on the country's military forces. The armed group had mounted a seven-hour assault on a Chadian army base at Bohoma.

Reporting from the Nigerian capital, Abuja, Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris said: "The country is trying to help other regional powers and regional forces under a group called the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) to finally defeat the Boko Haram."

"A similar operation was conducted five years ago, in 2015, that decimated the Boko Haram population. They have regrouped since then, and attacked and killed several thousands in the process and regional armies in the Lake Chad area have been struggling to deal with the problem," Idris added.

Lake Chad is a vast, marshy body of water where the borders of Niger, Nigeria, Chad and Cameroon meet.

The western shores of the lake have been hit by armed fighters crossing from northeastern Nigeria, where Boko Haram launched a bloody campaign of violence in 2009.

'Shouldering all the burden'
Chad declared departments near the lake "a war zone" in order to give the military free rein for the offensive.

The four countries bordering the lake in 2015 set up the MNJTF, also including Benin, to fight Boko Haram.

But Chad, whose forces have a relatively high standing in the Sahel region, has shown frustration with the MNJTF following the Bohoma losses.

"Chad is alone in shouldering all the burden of the war against Boko Haram," President Idriss Deby said last weekend.

"It is not clear if this will be the end or the beginning of the end of Boko Haram in the region. Many experts believe it is going to be very very difficult to say that Boko Haram is defeated or will be defeated anytime soon because this is an idealogy that has taken foothold for more than a decade in Nigeria which is spilling into its neighbours," Al Jazeera's Idris added.

Separately, in Niger, the defence ministry in Niamey said its armed forces, in a joint operation with Chad, had inflicted "heavy losses" on Boko Haram in the lake region.

"Arms caches, logistical points and several boats were destroyed" and islands used as rear bases in the lake's marshland were "bombarded from the air," it said.

Landlocked Niger is facing attacks by armed group on opposite ends of the country - fighting that has spilled over from neighbouring Mali, and raids in the Lake Chad region by Boko Haram fighters.

Boko Haram's 11-year-old campaign has claimed tens of thousands of lives in northeast Nigeria and driven nearly two million people from their homes.

Thank you OP for this. The truth is clear for those who chose to face reality. The fulani government of Nigeria doesn't want to wipe off boko haram. They don't even regard them terrorists rather they're using them for their own gains. How much have they stolen so far? How many young men have the various tribes lost to a ragtag group due to fulani moles in the army? I wonder what sort of spell is used on the people of Nigeria.
