The Nigerian Army have wreaked massive casualty on Boko Haram when they attacked Garshigar community of Mobar Local Government Area in Borno on Wednesday.
Texas Chukwu, Army Director of Public Relations, disclosed this in a statement released on Thursday in Maiduguri.
Chukwu stated that the insurgents, who were in nine gun trucks, were repelled by troops of 145 Battalion deployed for Operation Lafiya Dole following superior power of the vigilant troops.
He added that “preliminary battle damage assessment reveals that the overwhelming superior power of the troops devastated the insurgents, inflicting human and equipment casualty on the insurgents which forced them to withdraw in disarray.”
The director said that the gallant troops regrouped after the fierce encounter and dominated the general area of Garshigar and its environs with fighting patrols.
“The good people of Mobar Local Government are urged to remain calm and be assured of troops’ commitment to provide adequate security in the general area,” he added.
