Gallant Soldiers Hit Hard On Boko Haram In Sambisa forest
Gallant soldiers are now "clearing most of the camps therein, rescuing persons held captive, arresting some terrorists and destroying most of their weapons and equipment.
“Advancing troops of the Nigerian Army, supported by the Nigerian Air Force were able to clear and destroy Boko Haram terrorists’ camps at Shuari, Adembe, Yerimari Kura, Yerimari Gana, Gonin Kurmi, Kore, Mainya Kore, and Lopere.
“Additionally, the Multi-barrel Rocket Launcher Regiment has destroyed the terrorists’ camps
at Dure, Dure Kore, Jokwa, as well as several other camps.
“The troops recovered foodstuffs, motorcycles, flags, Improvised Explosive Making Devices (IED) materials and military uniforms. Among other discoveries were the terrorists’ tunnels, weapons and equipment.
“The soldiers also recovered 2,000 cows rustled from various persons over time and rescued women and children held captives by the Boko Haram. While the animals have been moved to Kanwuri, the rescued persons have been evacuated and are being given all the necessary support and assistance.
“During the encounter with the terrorists at Yerimari Gana a number of Boko Haram terrorists were killed and some suspected terrorists were arrested who are being interrogated. However, a soldier sustained gunshot wound and fracture on the leg.
“Similarly, while advancing to destroy Nefari terrorists camp, troops discovered and cleared 3 IEDs laid along the route. The camp was successfully cleared and troops have continued their advance while a blocking force has been deployed to prevent infiltration and possible escape by the terrorists.
“Unfortunately during another encounter with the terrorists along the axis of advance, three soldiers made the supreme sacrifice, while an officer and two soldiers were wounded in action.
“It is instructive to note that the troops’ morale is very high and being conscious of their set objective, they are unrelenting in their determination to defeat the Boko Haram terrorists,” acting Director Army Public Relations, Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman, said in a statement.
The soldiers are now in the process of advancing into the ticker parts of the forest. We wish them well!

UPDATES ON BAYELSA ELECTION: APC Leading (Results)
*PDP Chairman Loses In Own Ward || *Dickson Defeated In Front of Government House
The political developments in Bayelsa in the last 24 hours since the commencement of the election for the office of Governor are quite interesting. OluFamous.Com has been following the details.
So far, Governor Seriake Dickson of the PDP and Chief Timipre Sylva of
the APC appear to be running neck and neck in the December 5
governorship election in the state.
More election results have started coming in from the polling units...
According to The Nation, collation of the results went far into the night and a clearer picture is expected to emerge from Sunday.
Early results showed that the PDP performed badly in some of the areas it considered its strongholds and this included the neighbourhood of Government House, Yenagoa.
At the Peace Park polling unit 10 close to the seat of power Sylva polled 58 votes to Dickson’s 27.
The PDP also lost to the APC in the wards of several of its notable leaders including party Chairman in the state, Chief Serena Dokubo (Brass LG) and the Deputy Majority leader in the State House of Assembly, Hon. Tonye Isenah (Kolokuma/Opokuma LGA).
Results from Ekeremor, Brass, Kolokuma/Opokuma, Nembe and Yenagoa Local Government Areas showed that Sylva had pulled ahead of Dickson, although the governor was on top in Sagbama Local Government area.
Results from Ogbia LGA showed a close race. There was no election in Wards 4 and 5 in Ogbia council area following security threat by supporters of the two major contending parties.
Below are some of the unofficial results obtained last night:
