The spokesperson for the army, Sani Usman,
said this in a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES Thursday.
Mr. Sani, a colonel, said, “Following a tip-off
by well meaning citizens, troops of 3 Division
yesterday swooped over and dismantled a
Boko Haram fuel dump located at Ladu Dumbawa ward,
Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State.
“It would be recalled that suspected Boko
Haram terrorists had abducted seven persons in
Gajabere and took them to the same location.
Those kidnapped were three local wards heads
called “Lawani” and their respective deputies, as well as
the Chief Imam of the town.
“However, through sheer guts and bravery,
three of them escaped and reported the matter
to the security which led to the rescue of the rest and
discovery of the well concealed terrorists fuel
depot which was also destroyed by troops.
“The troops have further blocked the terrorists
supply route that led to Babangida in
Tarmuwa Local Government Area of
Yobe State where they mostly get the supplies.
“Troops are intensifying efforts to identify and
neutralise all Boko Haram logistic bases to further
constrict the terrorists and hasten their total defeat.
“Citizens are please requested to furnish the
military and security agencies with information
on all known terrorists location, routes, suppliers
of fuel, food, clothing and any good or service to the terrorists.”
