Nigeria’s military said on Saturday that it has recorded a major success in its onslaught against the dreaded Islamist sect, Boko Haram as troops of Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) have captured a major armoury of terrorists during a raid in the Lake Chad area of Borno State.
The military also said many members of the insurgent group were killed and substantial amount of money including foreign currencies of different denominations recovered in a statement by Major General Chris Olukolade, Director of Defence Information.
He added that a large cache of arms and ammunitions recovered from the terrorists are still being evacuated from their camp.
“Troops have captured a massive armoury with arms and ammunition dump of the terrorists sited in one of the camps that fell yesterday night in the ongoing counter terrorists operations.
“The large quantities of weapons recovered in the raid are still being evacuated from the scene of the night raid where several terrorists died.
“Similar operations took place in coordination with the troops of Multi-National Joint Task Force in the raids in other camps located in the outskirts of Duguri, Polkime, Malafatori and other locations around the fringes of Lake Chad.
“Substantial money in different currencies and denominations were also recovered from the camps.
“A total of seven terrorists were captured in the operation during which altogether a soldier died while five were wounded”.
The Defence spokesperson also said troops conducting cordon and search for remnants of the terrorists who attacked a military barrack in Maiduguri on Friday had an encounter with some of the surviving terrorists in the general area of Kayamla and Alu Dam in the outskirts of Maiduguri this morning.
“More of the terrorists have been killed and arrested in the ongoing encounters,” the defence spokesperson said.
According to him, those captured in the encounter are providing useful information towards the discovery of other hide outs of the daring terrorists.
“It has been revealed that the terrorists are now desperate to either free or kill the ones being detained, with a view to avenging or preventing further revelations about their operations and hide outs as this has been frustrating their plans lately.
General Olukolade added that the bodies of fleeing terrorists have been discovered along the routes of their escape while troops’ morale and fighting spirit have been further boosted by the outcome of the operations so far.
“Meanwhile, cordon and search as well as patrols and pursuit by air and land is continuing in the entire mission area of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa States,” he concluded.

Over Here Guys!; Mosanto Develops Revolutionary New Penis-Enlarging Corn Crop. (Must Read)

The multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation, Monsanto, announced this morning, that they had genetically engineered a modified corn crop, designed to help men have larger penises and longer-lasting erections. The company’s scientists used genes from a number of plants to create this surprising species of transgenic corn, described as “more efficient than any penis-enlarging pill”. They notably used genetic material from a plant native to Indonesia and Malaysia, called  Eurycoma Longifolia  or  Tongkat Ali , which is known for its ability to raise testosterone levels. They also used genes from watermelon, as its rind is a good natural source of citrulline, a dietary precursor which causes the penis to fill up nitric oxide. This relaxes the smooth muscle in blood vessels and erectile organs, augmenting the penis’ capacity for enlargement during erection. “Men will no longer have to pay hundreds of dollars to have larger penises”  says Dr. Fi
