Troops of the Nigerian Army on Thursday stormed the general area of Bogoro, Duguno 1, Duguno 2 and 3, where they discovered a ‘large’ pit in Jadda, said to have been used for the dumping of bodies of people killed by the terror group, Boko Haram.
Announcing this on Friday in a statement, the acting Director of Public Relations, Colonel Sani Usman, said the troops from 7 Division Strike Group Team B, attached to 22 Brigade, discovered the pit on Thursday after dislodging Boko Haram fighters in Jadda, which is said to be a stronghold of the terror group.
