Based on a brand new report on the Nigerian Defence website, troops have cleared and absorbed Balmo forest in a military operation that lasted through the weekend.
Prior to the operation, Balmo forest stretching from Bauchi through Jigawa States with links to the fringes of Sambisa forest was used by terrorists as bases and hideouts for launching attacks. But thankfully, terrorists and armed gangs operating in the forests were completely rooted out while some were captured during the operation.
