Finally Nigerian army Succeeds To Completely surround Boko Haram in Sambisa

The Nigerian army has said that the deadly Boko Haram sect is currently locked in Sambisa forest, the notorious enclave of the insurgents.

The terrorists reportedly cannot come out to launch attack on the rest of the nation. The commander of the counter-insurgency operation in the north-east (Operation Lafiya Dole), Maj. Gen. Lucky Irabor said this while addressing the conference on the successes in the war against the Boko Haram fighters.

He said the forest is completely surrounded by the Nigerian soldiers and there is no escape for any insurgents still holed up there. The commander added that it has become impossible for the Boko Haram members still holed up in the Sambisa forest to get out or for them to have access to civilization to get any supply.

Irabor said the soldiers are only waiting for the insurgents to surrender as life has become unbearable for them. He said if the terrorists do not come out soon enough, the army would move further into the forest to level it.

Meanwhile, he gave assurance that there is no escape for any insurgent still trapped within the forest as the soldiers have taken positions at all access routes leading into and out of the forest.

Since President Muhammadu Buhari was inaugurated on May 29, 2015, the Nigerian army achieved huge success in the Boko Haram war. 

The troops retook all territories from the insurgents and liberated thousands of captives. However, only one of the missing Chibok girls was found while more then 200 are still in the captivity of the Boko Haram terrorists.
