The war against terror received a major
boost on Wednesday when Nigerian troops captured a member of the highest
hierarchy of the Boko Haram group, Bulama Modu, along with 43 other
members in Borno State.
Modu, a commander of the Amir cadre,
which is the highest organ of the group, was captured when.....
the troops
destroyed Janguoriri and Bulatori Camps of the insurgents in northern
Borno.
The acting Director, Army Public
Relations, Col. Sani Usman, who confirmed the development, also said
that women and children numbering 241 were rescued during the operation.
Usman said that the troops recovered some
bows and arrows from Bulama who confessed that he also used a horse to
carry out his murderous attacks on innocent people.
The Army spokesperson said that Boko
Haram kingpins had resorted to burying their weapons in the sand, adding
that some members of the group had abandoned their commanders in the
heat of battle against the country’s Special Forces.
According to Usman, one terror suspect, Mohammed Modu, led the troops to a point where he buried his AK 47 rifle.
