The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) yesterday said Boko Haram has been knocked down in Borno and other parts of the Northeast. It said the only battle ground left is in the Sambisa Forest, the about 80 kilometres swathe of thick bush that is the sect’s stronghold.
It said once the battle for Sambisa is over, Boko Haram will become a thing of the past. But the DHQ pleaded for support from every citizen because it is a Nigerian war against Boko Haram insurgents.
