Nigeria's military set out to battle Boko Haram in dreaded Sambisa forest

Nigerian Army

A large number of soldiers were seen in Maiduguri yesterday moving towards the dreaded Sambisa forest, fortress of Islamic terror group, Boko Haram in Borno State.

The push for Sambisa forest started early in the morning with hundreds of soldiers seen on Damboa Road, Maiduguri, in several military trucks driving military equipment towards the forest which has been a no go area for sometime now.

This development, military sources has said was aimed at recovering the forest from the insurgents.

Though no military personnel was ready to give information on the deployment which held traffic up for hours within the Maiduguri metropolis, but the looks of the soldiers showed that they were battle ready.
