Nigerian soldiers have killed over 100 Boko Haram insurgents during a failed attempt to take over Konduga town, some 40 miles from Maiduguri, Borno State.
A statement from the Defence headquarters yesterday said troops ambushed the insurgents while marching from Bama to Konduga while Air Force jets and attack helicopters bombed them as “ground troops picked those of them attempting to flee the scene.” Authoritative military sources disclosed that at least 100 of the terrorists were shot dead in the attack while about 200 others escaped in the only truck that manoeuvred from the scene.
“Most of the dead insurgents were mangled beyond recognition during the few hours of fury displayed by our men”, a senior military officer disclosed.
