The Nigerian troops located at Goniri in Gujba local government area
of Yobe state, have dealt a deadly blow to Boko Haram terrorists after
foiling a heavy attack launched by the group on trucks this week.  

The insurgents had in recent times intensified attacks on military
bases and overran a military base in Kukareta, a village located about
20 kilometres to Damaturu, Yobo state, where they killed 13 soldiers and
a police officer.

“There has been wild celebration in Goniri currently, none of the
insurgents ran away. They were all killed. Their countless bodies are
everywhere right now,” said a security source.  

In a related development, the Nigerian Air Force has given a detailed
account of how the Air Task Force, ATF, of Operation LAFIYA DOLE and
Allied Air Forces provided air support to repel the attack by Boko Haram
in Baga.  The fishing town was attacked by members of the Islamic State
of West Africa Province, ISWAP, on the evening of December 26.

Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, NAF Director of Public Relations and
Information, gave the account, detailing the dozens of aerial strikes
against the positions of the terrorists.
