Boko Haram Recaptures Gamboru-ngala by Nobody: 2:41pm On Aug 25, 2014 |
Insurgents of the Islamist terror group, Boko Haram, today made further advances in territorial grab by once more taking over Gamboru-Ngala, a key township on the border between Nigeria and Cameroon. Today’s attack by a heavily armed contingent of the terror sect marked the second time Boko Haram fighters targeted and seized parts of the town. In the latest operation, the insurgents first attacked and sacked an army barracks in Ngala before proceeding to Gamboru about three kilometers away. The sect took over the town without resistance from Nigerian troops. In a response to the attacks, the Nigerian Air Force jet later dropped a massive bomb in the middle of Gamboru after hovering for several minutes in the air. The jet then left while the militants began a house-to-house raid in Gamboru. A contingent of Nigerian troops was later seen massing close to a bridge earlier destroyed by insurgents during their first attack on Gamboru. A security source told SaharaReporters that Boko Haram desperately wants to seize full control of Gamboru-Ngala because the extensive area offers great strategic advantages. “If they completely capture the township, Boko Haram will be able to use it to transact economic and military business,” said the source. He further explained, “The township will enable them [to] freely move arms into Nigeria in order to fortify their control of the seized territories they have declared an Islamic Caliphate.” In a video released yesterday and obtained by SaharaReporters, the insurgent leader, Abubakar Shekau, stated that his group did not recognise Nigeria. Instead, he declared that the sect had established a caliphate, or Islamic geopolitical entity. Among towns and areas under the sect’s control are Gwoza and Marte in Borno State, Buni Yadi in Yobe State, and Madagali in Adamawa State. www.punchng.com/news/boko-haram-recaptures-gamboru-ngala/ 1 Like |

THE greatest threat facing the nation’s war against the Boko Haram and other Islamist insurgents has to do with the unprecedented acts of sabotage that the national assignment is facing. Never at any other time in the history of Nigeria had the army been so bedeviled by internal and external undermining of efforts to rid the country of terrorists and other enemies of her unity and progress. The sabotage comes in so many forms. It is both within and outside the confines of the armed forces. According to media reports, some military officers with sympathy for the cause of the insurgents sometimes reportedly divulge critical information about the plans of the military to undertake campaigns or even funnel military equipment to their partisans in the enemy camp. This, we learnt, has led to the unceremonious cancellation of such campaigns to avoid putting officers and men in danger of running into ambushes. One of the greatest forms of the sabotage is misinformation. Many sympathisers of Boko Haram are very eager to approach, mainly, the foreign media to say uncomplimentary things about our armed forces . They create an impression of Boko Haram as an invincible force and Sambisa, their chosen camp, as an impregnable fortress. It is this misinformation and the subsequent avoidable losses in men and military material that give rise to the tales of real or imagined “mutinies” and protests among our men under arms. The military high command, as well as their supervisory political authorities, must take firm steps to discourage acts of sabotage against our men and women confronting the terrorists. We are fully in support of the assurance by the Chief of Army Staff, Lt General Kenneth Minimah, that the army will henceforth go tough on saboteurs and visit them with the strictest dictates of the law when nabbed and convicted of the crime. We are also gratified to note that army is on the verge of taking delivery of sophisticated equipment. It will surely boost morale among the troops and spur them to greater effort to flush the terrorists out of Nigeria. We call on the mass media to redouble their efforts and throw their full support for the armed forces. More efforts should be made to de-emphasise the dissemination of sensational and unsubstantiated information because we may be unwittingly playing into the hands of the terrorists. It is important for media houses to take a closer hold of their online editions and minimise their use by the terrorists and their supporters to achieve their evil purposes. The war on terror is not for the army, security agencies or the federal government alone. It is a collective effort. We must report suspected saboteurs to the appropriate authorities and keep our communities safe. - See more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/08/going-tough-saboteurs/#sthash.2n15VuzI.dpuf 1 Like |

Never at any other time in the history of Nigeria had the army been so bedeviled by internal and external undermining of efforts to rid the country of terrorists and other enemies of her unity and progress. THE TRUTH IS SIMPLY JUST BITTER in your case 2 BITTER 2 BELIEVE We are getting reports from multiple credible sources we have seen the video Boko are now like a mini ISIS having seized a T55 MTB, a few Steyr tracked APC's with HMG's, the dreaded ZSU Shilka and multiple pick ups. I actually thought the Nigerian troops were very brave to be fighting with 20mm cannons on technicals with their antiquated AK47's quite clearly zero air support left to roast by top brass. Is it when they ROLL into Abuja before the reality will dawn on you. WATER DON PASS GARI |

Just like someone pointed out,it took islamic rebels less than a month before they captured northern Mali uncluding the town of Gao. It took the ISIS less than one month to seize control of half of So why is it taking Boko haram forever to capture a mere local local govt in Bornu state.Anyone who says Boko is winning the war should bury their head in shame 5 Likes

Why are you promoting their propaganda Bruv I just saw an AFP video on Youtube in which you could see Nigerian soldiers running away while being shot at by BH. In the same video you can see BH loading the spoils of war into trucks seized from NA. BH even had an APC with a gunner on it. I fear fear o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_jC6Y9sskY 1 Like |
