ISWAP ambushes Boko Haram, kills 20 in fierce Borno clash - Daily Post Nigeria
2025-03-06
[DAILYPOST.NG] At least 20 Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
West Africa Province (ISWAP) fighters in Borno State, as ISWAP launched a surprise assault on their positions.

According to a post by security analyst Zagazola Makama on his official X handle on Tuesday, the clash took place on March 3 in the riverine areas of Abadam Local Government Area, extending into parts of the Diffa region in Niger Republic.

Makama revealed that the violence erupted like lava from a volcano after ISWAP operatives ordered local residents to clear thick vegetation between Dabar Giwa village in Kukawa Local Government Area and Garin Mallam Ya'u.

This action unintentionally exposed the positions of Boko Haram murderous Moslems, who had been hiding in the area since February 27 in preparation for a counteroffensive against ISWAP.

''Contrary to Boko Haram's planned ambush, ISWAP launched a well-coordinated offensive, targeting krazed killer camps located between Tumbun Kwatar Mota and Tumbun Marakirya, near a former ISWAP stronghold in Tumbun Gini,'' Makama stated.

The sudden attack caught Boko Haram fighters off guard, leading to the deaths of at least 20 krazed killers.
