The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... forces of Evil at Pulka, Borno State. A statement from army front man Colonel Sani Usman said the bad boys, who came through Banki axis of Sambisa forest, attempted to inflict damage on the troops. He said the vigilant soldiers rose to the occasion and dealt with the turbans by killing six of them, adding that they also recovered 1 Fabrique Nationale (FN) rifle with registration number 167229, two belts of 148 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It's headquartered in Belgium. That sez it all.... ) ammunition and 1 FN rifle magazine loaded with 7.62mm ammunition (Special). Usman said the troops also blew up three Vehicles laden with Improvised Explosives Device (VBIEDs). He said: "Unfortunately, 5 soldiers sustained various degrees of injuries during the attack. They have been moved to the unit’s Medical Reception Station for treatment." |
