According to sources, the military has destroyed a vehicle filled with explosives in Konduga, Borno state.
In the wake of the recent spate of attacks by the terrorists, the Nigerian troops have reportedly embarked on a comprehensive mission of combating the terrorists’ hideouts and escape routes.
The troops in Konduga today destroyed a vehicle laden with Improvised Explosive Device (IED) meant for suicide bombing operation by the terrorists.
This is the latest incident in the series of recent attempts being made by terrorists to make incursions into the town and other surrounding communities.
Our sources gathered that while undisclosed number of terrorists were killed, no personnel or civilian was affected in today’s incident.
Meanwhile, a top military source implored residents to always report suspicious movements and activities of strange people, in order for the authority to investigate and take appropriate actions.
He said: “What we need from Nigerians is their supports, their encouragements and prayers to enable us overcome this insanity from unrepentant terrorists. Nigeria encourages institutions to be transparent in their information management as it provides news items from authoritative sources for free use by the media.”
