 The acting Army spokesman, Col. Sani Usman, confirmed the incident in
 a statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja
 on Friday.The Nigerian Army has confirmed the killing of 14 persons, including 
four suicide bombers, in a bomb explosion at Sajeri area of Maiduguri in
 Borno.Usman said that 39 other persons were injured in the explosion which 
occurred near the Ajilari railway crossing on Thursday evening.“Although details of the attack are still sketchy, suffice it to 
state that four Boko Haram terrorists detonated their vests 
simultaneously.According to the statement, security operatives and emergency 
management team have been mobilised to take care of the wounded persons.“Three of the terrorists detonated their bombs in the same area while the fourth detonated in front of a mosque.“It has been confirmed that 14 people have lost their lives, 
including the suicide bombers while 39 others were wounded,’’ the 
statement said.Usman appealed to residents of the metropolis, especially those in 
the affected areas, to remain calm and continue to be vigilant as 
security operatives were in control of the situation.<br />
He assured the public that Boko Haram had been decimated and 
therefore had no capacity to reverse the progress already made in the 
ongoing counter-insurgency operations.In a related development, the Army announced that 80 Boko Haram 
fighters on Thursday surrendered to troops of the Army 7 Division in 
Bama Local Government Area of Borno.The Army said the repentant terrorists comprised commanders, foot soldiers and the terrorists’ food suppliers.It said that the terrorists surrendered as a result of the intense 
heat put on them by joint forces operating in different theaters in the 
North-East.<br />
“The terrorists among whom were commanders, suppliers and foot 
soldiers confirmed to have taken part in several terrorists attacks 
especially on Bama town, Borno, surrendered,’’ the statement said.<br />
The army attributed its success to intense heat and the continuous offensive embarked upon by troops.“It will be recalled that we have repeatedly stated that surrender is the only option available to the insurgents.‘’The Nigerian Army and Nigerian Air Force, in conjunction with other
 security agencies, are totally committed to the achievement of the 
3-month Presidential deadline for the eradication of terrorism in 
Nigeria.‘’Other terrorists are encouraged to also surrender or face total 
annihilation, as the new name of the operation states ‘achievement of 
total peace is a must’,’’ it said. (NAN)</div>

The Nigeria Army on Monday maintained that its warning to saboteurs 
of the ongoing operations in the North-East was not directed to the 
Borno Elders of Thought (BELT), a socio-political group. The Acting Army
 spokesman, Col. Sani Usman, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), in a
 telephone interview in Abuja that the warning was misrepresented by a 
section of the media.He said that the Army command was explicitly clear on the matter and 
did not mention the names of any individual or group in the 
statement. According to Usman, the warning became necessary following 
series of malicious comments made in the social media about the ongoing 
operations.“ Of course, they are not happy with our successes because they are 
benefitting, one way or the other, from the crisis. “These people know 
themselves; we certainly were not referring to the Borno elders as 
contained in some of the media reports. “ So, it is wrong for anybody to
 now infer that we accused the Borno elders of undermining our efforts.“I can categorically tell you that the Nigerian Army has credible 
information that certain individuals and groups are making efforts to 
undermine and discredit the renewed fight against Boko Haram. “Their 
comments in the social media are indicative of this fact and there is no
 doubt as to what their motives are.“This is wrong, I will continue to state as I have stated in our 
previous releases that, we enjoy the support of the elders and those who
 are interested in peace, so the reports are false.’’ Usman insisted 
that the Army would not spare anyone that was bent on frustrating the 
efforts of security agencies in the war against Boko Haram.He said that the Army would act in accordance with the relevant laws,
 if those involved in the alleged sabotage refused to desist from the 
act. “Like I have said, we have warned and the next thing is to act in 
accordance with the laws, if they don’t stop. “The anti-terrorism act is
 there and the punishment for anyone found culpable of acts of terrorism
 will be made to bear the consequences.“Therefore, it is not a question of what are we going to do, anybody 
that is associated with terrorism or related acts and is found guilty 
will face the law.’’ He solicited for the continued support of the 
public to meet the timeline given by President Muhammadu Buhari to end 
Boko haram and restore peace to the North East.NAN recalls that the Army command had alerted the public about some 
individuals and groups, whose activities, it said, was inimical to the 
military operation in the North East.

 statement on Wednesday that the captured Boko Haram Kingpin, Modu, 
belonged to the Amir cadre of the deadly sect.TheNigerian Army has said troops involved in the on-going counter 
terrorism operation have arrested a top Boko Haram Commander identified

at Janguoriri and Bulatori.He said the troops recovered some bows and arrows from Bulama who 
also confessed that a horse was given to him to carry out his deadly 
mission.According to Usman, one terror suspect, Mohammed Modu, led the troops to a point where he buried his AK 47 rifle.He said the Special Forces also rescued 241 women and children during the operation.The Acting Army Spokesman said Boko Haram kingpins had been 
discovered to be burying their weapons and abandoning their commanders.He said, “Please recall that yesterday advancing troops along Banki

terrorists’ camps at Jangurori and Bulatori villages.“In addition to that, the troops have also arrested 43 suspected Boko
 Haram terrorists including one of the Boko Haram kingpins in the area, 
Bulama Modu, who is an ‘Amir’ of Bulakuri. The troops also rescued 241

troops to where he buried his AK-47 rifle at Jangurori village.“Apart from arms and ammunitions, bows and arrows recovered from 
Bulama Modu, the kingpin, he confirmed that the terrorists also gave him

the IEDs used for the attack on Northern Cameroun were prepared by the 
trio of Abdulrahaman Alkali, Isa, Ba’ana Hisuba and Alkali Isa Karami, 
all natives of Dara Jamel.He added that the suspected insugents had fled Dara Jamel for Sumbulun Village.Usman said the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant Gen.Tukur Buratai, who
