The Nigerian Army revealed on Tuesday that it had rescued 30 persons forcefully abducted by suspected Boko Haram terrorists, as a follow up to its operations in Dikwa headquarters of Dikwa local government area, Borno.
Col. Tukur Gusau, the Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, stated the accomplishment in a statement in Maiduguri where he said: “As a result of the ongoing operation under the aegies of Operation Lafiya Dole to clear Dikwa and its environs from Boko Haram terrorists, the 7 Division of the Nigerian Army on Tuesday rescued 30 women and children from the hands of the terrorists in Kwayabe and Wufe wards of Dikwa LGA.”
Gasau continued saying: "The rescued persons include 21 children, a six-day-old infant and seven women. Three of the women are nursing mothers. Our troops also discovered a training shed inside the vandalised and looted palace of the Shehu of Dikwa where weapons handling and engagement of aircraft were being taught to new Boko Haram recruits”
I wonder what it will profit Boko Haram members by kidnapping mothers and children...
GOD HELP US!!
