February 27, 2016

Army Combat MotorbikeTo meet up with the renewed strategy of clearing the remnants of Boko Haram terrorists, the Nigerian Army today inducted a combat motorbike battalion at the Headquarters of 25 Task Force Brigade, Damboa, Borno State.
The Nigerian Army also launched the second set of 100 wanted suspected Boko Haram terrorists at the occasion.

The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Tukur Yusufu Buratai while inducting the unit stated that the essence of the battalion is to open and secure motorways from various towns to and fro Maiduguri and other parts of Yobe State.

Prior to the induction and launching ceremony, the Chief of Army Staff took time off to see and address troops located at Delwa and Bulabulin before arriving Damboa. On arrival, he inspected a Quarter guard at the Brigade’s headquarters.

Thereafter, he was briefed by the Brigade Commander, Brigadier General Lawrence Adeleke Araba and then showed him some weapons, vehicles and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) making machines and equipment the formation recovered when they cleared Boko Haram terrorists camps at Talala and Ajingin recently.
