UPDATE: Vigilantes Recaptures Mubi Town, Chase Boko Haram

We don't know the truth anymore regarding Boko Haram and villages said to be captured.

Here is another news update about recaptured Mubi village by Vigilante. Should this be a confirmed truth, ehen...I suggest government should employ the Vigilantes as Soldiers and pay then instead.

The Adamawa State governor and residents on Thursday confirmed this latest development.

“Some of them (Boko Haram) ran away through Askira Uba and others through Mubi South and the situation in Mubi now is quite different from what it used to be.”

 A spokesperson to Governor Bala Ngilari told Premium Times that Mubi is now quite different from what it used to be. He said local vigilante, popularly called Civilian JTF, launched a daring night time attack on Boko Haram terrorist in Mubi and drove them out. The government added that the operation by the vigilante received some support from the military

While a military source has said that the operation was not as “conclusive as claimed”, the Adamawa State government said the operation was successful and that Mubi is now free of Boko Haram.

 “His Excellency, Governor Bala Ngilari, has confirmed that the combined efforts of the Civilian Vigilante and the Sarkin Bakan Gombi as well as the military has successfully chased away Boko Haram from Mubi town,” Phineas Elisha, the director, press, to Governor Ngilari, told PT.
