Here is another reason to celebrate. Yes, if some persons rejoice
when insurgents take hold of our territories and cause mayhem, then we have
even more right to celebrate the successes of our troops.
The 7 Division of Nigerian Army, on Sunday in Abuja,
said it has recaptured Chibok town in Borno State from insurgents.
This information is contained in a statement issued by Colonel
Sani Usman, Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, 7 Division of the Nigerian
Army.
It said the military was still carrying out mopping-up
operation on the surrounding environment.
The statement added that Chibok was fully secured.
Note that the insurrection by Boko Haram, which wants to
create an Islamic state in mainly Muslim northern Nigeria, has claimed more
than 10,000 lives in the past five years.
Read the short Statement...
"The terrorists who attacked Chibok town early yesterday
have been effectively flushed out of the area. The subsequent mopping up
operation is still ongoing, as troops continue the pursuit of fleeing
terrorists and arrest of the wounded."
"Meanwhile, normalcy has been restored and the town is now
secured. Further details will follow later please."
