Troops of the Operation Lafiya Dole have arrested four members of the Boko Haram sect who claimed they were about to surrender.
The Acting Director, Army Public Relations, Col. Sani Usman, said the insurgents were arrested as soldiers acting on information from an arrested Boko Haram member, Lawan Abbai, cleared out landmines and Improvised Explosive Device (IED) planted along military supply routes at Gombori, Borno State.
The troops also rescued five women and a baby from Boko Haram terrorists at the same general area.
