The Headquarters of the Nigerian Army says troops of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) operating in the theater of war in the North-East eliminated 42 Boko Haram/ISWAP terrorists in the past two weeks, while a total of 3,858 surrendered to the military within the same period, IgbereTV reports
The Director of the Defence Media Operations, Maj. Gen. Bernard Onyeuko, who gave an update while reviewing the progress of the ongoing military campaign against insurgency on Thursday in Abuja, said six top terrorists commanders and their families were part of the 3,858 that surrendered to troops.
Onyeuko added that the terrorists had no choice but to surrender as troops had taken the battle to Boko Haram terrorists/Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) enclaves with more coordinated operations
