Following a tip off troops of Operation Lafiya Dole and some Civilian
JTF yesterday went on a clearance patrol to Borgozo-Alargano general area
in which they discovered large cache of arms and ammunitions
concealed by Boko Haram terrorists.
The patrol team also cleared remnants of Boko Haram terrorists that
were dislodged from Alagarno forest hibernating at Kadari, Camp Abu
Fatima and Gursum.
The troops discovered large cache of arms and ammunitions that include
36 boxes of .51mm calibre, 5 x 20 Lyra beefcake mixture of 7.62mm
(NATO) ammunition, large quantity of 7.62mm (Special), ammunition and
one 81mm mortar tube. In addition, the troops recovered 1 Toyota Hilux,
1 Generator and several motorcycles.
The Nigerian Army wishes to appeal to all Nigerians and in particular,
the good people of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe States to continue to
provide useful information to troops in order to facilitate complete
routing of the remnants of Boko Haram insurgents hiding in their
localities.
