The Nigerian Army has announced the death of three key commanders of the extremist Boko Haram sect. The army in a statement today said the terrorists were killed on Friday in an important air strike on the location in the dreaded Sambisa Forest.  The spokesperson for the Army, Sani Usman, said the best choice of the terrorist group, Abubakar Shekau, was also targeted with a deadly injury on his shoulder . His statement entirely reads;

 

“In what one could describe as the most unprecedented and spectacular air raid, we have just confirmed that as a result of the interdiction efforts of the Nigerian Air Force, some key leaders of the Boko Haram terrorists have been killed while others were fatally wounded.

“The air interdiction took place last week Friday 19th August 2016, while the terrorists were performing Friday rituals at Taye village.

“Those Boko Haram terrorists commanders confirmed dead include Abubakar Mubi, Malam Nuhu and Malam Hamman, amongst others. While their leader, so called “Abubakar Shekau”, is believed to be fatally wounded on his shoulders. Several other terrorists were also wounded”.
