The Nigerian troops currently engaged in clearance operations in the North east, known as Operation LAFIYA DOLE, with the assistance of Vigilante groups on routine checks, have arrested a high profile suspected Boko Haram terrorist, Mohammed Mohammed.
Soldiers, with help from the youth vigilante group, Civilian JTF, on Monday night succeeded in preventing an incursion into a village in Borno State by Boko Haram members.
The Commission of Inquiry set-up by the Kaduna State government to investigate the cause of the clash between members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IMN, and soldiers last December, says both the Army and the leader of the group, Ibraheem El-Zakzaky are to blame for the incident.
Troops of Operation Lafiya Dole in the early hours of Sunday ambushed Boko Haram members, who were carrying weapons, motorcycle, bycicles and other items into Sambisa Forest from Komala and Musafanari axis.
