Aftermath
of intensified Airforce bombardment and Army artillery fire on
remaining hideouts of Boko Haram terrorists in Sambisa Forest, the
remnants of the insurgents have fleed the forest in bid to escape.
Confirming the development in a statement, Acting Director of Army
Public Relations, Col Sani Usman said,
“This is to inform the public that due
to aerial bombardment and concerted efforts of the ground troops; and
facing imminent annihilation, Boko Haram terrorists have been deserting
Sambisa forest in droves. Usman said that as they are fleeing the
military bombardment, the terrorists are trying to disperse to various
parts of the country.
“The cowards are running away from their well noted enclave in Sambisa forest for their lives.
“Consequently it becomes necessary to
inform the public, especially well meaning Nigerians, to be more
vigilant and security conscious.
“The public are please requested to be
observant and report any suspicious persons or group of persons to the
military or any of the security agencies to enable timely detection and
apprehension of the fleeing insurgents before they mingle with the
society and commit havoc.
“We would like to reassure the public of
the confidentiality of the information provided and reiterate our
commitment to the clearance of the remnants of Boko Haram terrorists”
the statement added.
