Nigeria lost $40.6 billion alone to insecurity in 2020 as unknown gunmen, killer herdsmen, bandits, Boko Haram, and ISWAP terrorists combined to unleash violence.
ISWAP terror group is a faction of Boko Haram group that emerged in 2016. The group who specialises in attacking military bases and formations pledged its allegiance to Islamic State.
Nigerian Army has begged Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists to seek forgiveness and reconciliation, saying soldiers and the public are not happy people are dying.
“Regrettably, one gallant officer and six soldiers paid the supreme sacrifice while five other soldiers sustained various degrees of injuries,” said the army.
Mr. Yerima disclosed that the troops’ sustained onslaught against the terrorists had continued to gain traction.
Defence Headquarters said in a statement disclosed that the terrorists use the camp as a logistics hub.
