Nigeria’s military authorities said on Saturday that troops have captured a massive armory with an arms and ammunition dump belonging to the Boko Haram terrorists in one of the camps which fell yesterday night in the counter-terrorism operations.   

In a statement signed in Abuja by the Director of Information for Defence Headquarters (DHQ), Major General Chris Olukolade, the army further said that a large quantity of weapons recovered in the raid was still being evacuated from the scene of the night raid in which several terrorists died.  Similar operations also took place in coordination with the troops of Multi-National Joint Task Force in in other camps located on the outskirts of Duguri,  Polkime, Malafatori on the fringes of Lake Chad.   
The statement added that substantial amounts of money in different currencies and denominations were also recovered from the camps, and that seven terrorists were captured.

One soldier was also killed, and five were wounded.

Major General Olukolade further stated that the troops conducting a cordon and search for remnants of the daring terrorists who attacked Giwa Barracks in Maiduguri yesterday, had an encounter with some of them in the general area of Kayamla and Alu Dam on the outskirts of Maiduguri this morning. More of them were either killed or arrested.


“Those captured in the encounter are providing useful information towards the discovery of other hide outs of the daring terrorists,” he said.  “It has been revealed that the terrorists are now desperate to either free or kill the ones being detained, with a view to avenging or preventing further revelations about their operations and hide outs as this has been frustrating their plans lately.”

He said that more bodies of dead terrorists have been discovered along the routes of their attempted escape, and that the morale and fighting spirit of the troops have been further boosted by the outcome of the operations so far.

"Meanwhile, cordon and search as well as patrols and pursuit by air and land is continuing in the entire mission area of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa States," he said.

How do they move these sacks of cash around in different currencies and denominations?
Definitely they have good financial backing the government must and should be able to trace the source.....

These criminals are well armed with both money and weapons.
