Soldiers Capture 167 Insurgents, (photos)



About 167 insurgents have been captured by operatives of the Nigerian Army as they paraded the Lake Chad Islands in the restive north-eastern part of Nigeria.

Troops of Operation Lafiya Dole have intensified the ongoing offensive on Boko Haram enclaves in the Islands around the Lake Chad region.

The offensive which commenced about two weeks ago with coordinated air and artillery bombardments on Boko Haram enclaves while ground troops moved in to clear the areas,

is yielding positive results, as several insurgents have been killed and 167 insurgents who were fleeing from the offensive have been captured by troops.

Troops also extricated and profiled 67 women and 173 children who revealed during profiling exercise that they are family members of insurgents who fled, following troops’ offensive.

Arrangement is ongoing to hand them over to IDP camp authorities after preliminary investigations are concluded.

Meanwhile in the past two months, troops of Operation Lafiya Dole have sustained ongoing precursor operations and have conducted long range fighting patrols and ambushes seeking out and clearing BHT hideouts in Saada and Juwei in the fringes of northern Borno.

During the operations troops intercepted and arrested 53 fleeing insurgents who have been profiled and are currently helping with investigations.

Fifteen insurgents have also willingly abandoned the insurgent group, describing it as a futile struggle and have surrendered to troops of Operation Lafiya Dole within the period.

Our heartfelt sympathy and condolences go to families and relations of troops as well as civilians who paid the supreme price in the encounters and callous suicide bomb and Improvised Explosive Device (IED) attacks by the terrorists.

While troops continue relentlessly in the ongoing offensive to decisively rid the northeast hinterlands of insurgents, members of the public are implored to be more security conscious and vigilant in their homes,

communities, places of worship, markets and other places of business to identify strange persons as well as any suspicious activity and promptly report same to security agencies. They are also urged to remember to “Say something, if you see something”.
