The guerillas dispatched synchronous assaults on Maiduguri, Konduga and Monguno on Sunday, January 25, and were repulsed from the initial two towns yet figured out how to assume control over the recent.
The encampment are presently under Boko Haram's control and the destiny of around 1,400 officers, who were supposedly conveyed there, stays obscure.
A senior military officer, who decided to stay nameless, told Vanguard:
"Monguno has fallen, Monguno has fallen. We battled every one of them night long yet they assumed control over the town, including the military garisson huts there."
The Director of Defense Information, Chris Olukolade likewise affirmed the reports saying that fighters in Monguno including a "Detachment Commander and a percentage of the troops", were injured and needed to withdraw from the town.
