At least 25 members of the Boko Haram terrorists group were on
Sunday night killed by troops of the 7 Division, Nigerian Army in Damboa Local
Government Area of Borno state. Security officials have said.
The attack on Damboa had cast much
doubts that many concerned had expressed over the much talked- about ceasefire
deal the federal government said it signed on Friday with the Boko Haram
gunmen.
It would be recalled that Boko Haram had
on the 17th of July 2014 hoisted their flags in Damboa after a deadly gunbattle
that left, five policemen, several soldiers and Lieutenant Colonel Commanding
the military base in Damboa dead with property worth billions of naira
destroyed.
A reliable security source in Maiduguri
told Vanguard’s Correspondent that the insurgents invaded Damboa town at about
5:15pm on Sunday.
