Nigerian army says 16 Boko Haram terrorists killed in Borno state
[DAILYSABAH] The Nigerian army said Friday it killed at least 16 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...

Army spokesperson Onyechi Anele said troops launched sustained indirect fire around 1 a.m. in the Damboa Local Government Area, sparking a shootout that led to the deaths of the krazed killers.

...a long, narrow country that fills the space between Nigeria and Chad on the northeast, CAR to the southeast. Prior to incursions by Boko Haram nothing ever happened there...
and Mali, has waged a brutal insurgency for over a decade, marked by mass killings and widespread displacement.

Borno state has, in recent months, witnessed a surge in terrorist activity, including the use of bombs to wreak havoc.

''The main thrust of the attack targeted the brigade, prompting the swift deployment of air support to reinforce ground troops,'' Anele said in a statement Friday.

She also confirmed that an ammunition storage area was hit during the exchange but was swiftly brought under control, with no further escalation.

Separately, Nigeria's National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu said 15,543 hard boyz have been killed across the country in the first two years of President Bola Tinubu's administration.
