Army to establish special brigade inside Sambisa forest

Chief of Army Staff, Maj. Gen. Tukur Buratai, is believed to have concluded plans to establish a Special Task Force Battalion inside the Boko Haram stronghold of Sambisa Forest.

The creation of the new brigade was meant to take the battle to the insurgents and flush them out of Sambisa forest.

Punch Newspapers reports that a security source revealed that the special brigade is to be named the 29th Special Task Force Brigade under 7th Division.

The source was quoted to have said, “The new Chief is planning a new brigade in the mission area. The brigade is to be called 29th Special operations Brigade under the 7th division of the Nigerian Army.”

“You know that the Sambisa Forest is very vast and they are still staging their attacks from the forest. What the Chief wants to do is to establish the brigade in the forest and take the fight to them.

“The brigade will be there permanently to go after the insurgents, destroy their stronghold and restore sanity in the area. The troops are very excited about the idea.”
