A detachment of the Nigerian military has stormed the dangerous and dreaded Sambisa Forest in Borno State to dislodge members of the violent sect, Boko Haram, who are believed to have used the forest as their stronghold, from where they unleash their terrorist activities.

Sambisa Forest was once believed to be the most feared hideout of the militants, where over 200 schoolgirls, who were abducted from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, on April 14, 2014, were held captive.

The source did not, however, specify how many of the militants had been captured, but said the "insurgents will be flushed out soon."

BBN promises to give you the information as news unfolds.‎
