A statement on the official Facebook page of the Nigerian Army noting the destruction of the ISWAP Caliphate read;
“BREAKING: Gallant Troops of 401 Special Forces Brigade in conjunction with 19 Brigade Baga while on offensive clearance operations between Cross Kauwa & Gudumbali in Borno State yesterday 25 Jan 2022 neutralised terrorists and destroyed the purported ISWAP Caliphate. Details Later
“Additionally, in the early hours of today 26 January 2022, troops of 25 Task Force Brigade Damboa, Borno State, destroyed and burnt identified Boko Haram/ISWAP Night Market at Gumsuri.”
GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that the ISWAP Caliphate comprising mostly of foreign Islamist troops operating in the Baga and Lake Chad regions of Borno State had until recently proved a hard nut to crack.
However, the deployment of the Tucano aircraft has helped to pierce the defences of the terrorists leading to increased gains by the troops on ground.
The army is yet to give more developments on the success against the ISWAP caliphate as so called.
