The Director of Operations, Major General Edward Buba, made this announcement in Abuja during the biweekly Defence Media Operations media briefing. He stated that Halilu Buzu, a native of Niger, lives in a forest in Zamfara State and frequently flees to the Niger Republic after carrying out attacks in Nigeria.
On the other hand, General Buba stated that the military is collaborating with its counterparts in the Niger Republic to guarantee the capture of the terrorist who employs numerous boys.
Buba added that in the previous two weeks, 253 kidnapped victims had been successfully rescued by Nigerian Army troops.
He said that the Troops of Operations Y-Watch, the Troops of Nokia-Fighting Patrols, and the Troops of Operations Delta State were responsible for the accomplishment.
While also announcing the killing of some insurgents, he said the fight against terrorism is one that “must be won”.
Speaking further, Buba also said that the troops neutralised 227 and arrested 529 terrorists. Eleven perpetrators of oil theft were also arrested in the weeks under review.
“We relentlessly target these categories of terrorists such that we will be able to take them out, and take them off battle field as soon as possible.
“Soon, the fate of such terrorists will be decided. It will be violent and it will be short, and will stop at nothing to take them off the battle field,” he said.
