No fewer than 70 persons, including 15
soldiers, died in the military operations to track down the
insurgents who carried out the last Friday’s pre-dawn attacks on
Mohammed Kur Barracks in Bama, Borno State.
The remaining 55 comprised of 50 insurgents and five villagers. The Director of Defence Information,
Maj.-Gen. Chris Olukolade, who made this known in a statement on
Monday, added that 20 vehicles belonging to the insurgents were also
destroyed during the attack.
