The Nigerian Army says troops of Operation Lafiya Dole (OPLD) have eliminated 13 top commanders and scores of fighters of Islamic States West Africa Province (ISWAP) terrorists in Borno.


Army spokesman Mohammed Yerima in a statement on Friday said that the feat was achieved by well-coordinated operations of both air and land troops.


Mr Yerima said that several terrorists had met their waterloo in attempts to overrun Damasak and adjoining communities in Mobbar Local Government Area of Borno. He disclosed that senior ISWAP commander Bukar Fitchmeram (aka Abu Aisha) and scores of his fighters, who were on a revenge mission at Damasak, fell to the firepower of Nigerian troops on Thursday.

He said that the terrorists were neutralised as they made a come-back, following the killing of 12 high-value ISWAP commanders in Mobbar Local Government Area in a week-long air and ground operations by Nigerian troops.


According to him, in well-coordinated ground bombardments and aerial strikes by the Nigerian military on various locations in the Northeast, the terrorists, who were denied any sanctuary or respite, desperately conducted two separate failed attacks on Gajiram and Damasak.


“The deadly air strikes conducted on Tudun Wulgo, Zari and Tumbun Alhaji, Kusuma, Sigir in Ngala and Arijallamari, in Abadam, Marte and Ngala Local Government Areas, led to the killing of top ISWAP leaders.


“The terrorist commanders that perished in the airstrikes included; Mohammad Fulloja, Ameer Mallam Bello, Ba’a kaka Tunkushe, Abu Al -Ansari, Ameer Abba Kaka, Abu Huzaifa, Ameer Modu Kwayem, while Goni Mustapha, who was the Chief Imam of the ISWAP escaped with bullet wounds.

I dont trust the Nigerian army one bit after the whole massacre of a village by Boko Haram where they denied it and called it fake news.

Boko Haram bragged about killing 100 innocent villagers while the NA called it fake.

The whole conflict is a clown show. NA is just one big corrupt institution. When it comes to fighting terror they are complicating matters even further.
