Two ‘high profile’ Boko Haram commanders identified as Abu
Rajal and Tuja Sai’inna Banki were killed during a clearance operation by
troops of 25 Task Force Brigade Chibok and 28 Task Force Brigade Damboa.
The troops according to a Twitter post by the army embarked
on the clearance operations from Gumsuri to Gamboru in Borno State on 9
November. “They successfully cleared and
liberated some villages,”, the army said.
The Chief of army staff, Lt Gen TY Buratai has commended the
gallant troops and urged them to carry out further incursions and clearance
operations to ensure that the remnants of the BHT are completely wiped out.
