Nigerian army frees 400 Boko Haram hostages
[AA.TR] The Nigerian army said on Monday it had rescued another 400 hostages from Boko Haram... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... hideouts in the country's northeast as troops intensified clearance operations across areas reportedly still inhabited by krazed killers. Army front man Col. Sani Usman said in a statement that at least three turbans were killed while nine were captured in the operations in northeastern Borno State. "The troops also recovered 300 herds of cattle rustled by the Boko Haram Death Eaters from Fulani herdsmen and handed over to the right rightful owners," said Usman. Sunday’s rescue of 400 people brings to around 1,400 the number of hostages freed in the last month alone by the military, according to official figures released on Sunday by commander of the operation Maj. Gen. Lucky Irabor. Posted by: Fred 2016-05-03 |
