Unnamed chief bomb maker for BH killed by Shekau’s aide

A top IED specialist for Boko Haram has been shot dead by an aide of Abu Shekau’s, the supposedly late lynchpin of the world’s bloodiest terrorist group.

According to Army’s spokesman Sani Usman, the unnamed explosive maker was about to flee as the federal troops double charged the mop-up and clearance operation in the northeast, especially in the Sambisa Forest.

“The chief bomb maker, apart from his high status in the command structure of the Boko Haram terrorists,was one of their capable hands involved in making Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), coming after their chief scientist, called Abu RPG (who has been killed long ago),” Usman stated in a May 24 press release by the force.

Although one Julelebeeb who was appointed to take over the IED department for the terrorists has gone completely blind. Usman said Julelebeeb’s two eyes were smashed by shrapnel while he was knocking up an IED in appreciation of his new appointment.

“There is no doubt this development has dealt a devastating blow on the terrorists capacity on IED preparation, suicide bombing and their ability to sustain their criminal acts.”

The federal forces are believed to have gained the upper hand in the on-going crack down on the terrorists who have killed over 7000 people, and displaced more than two million.
