Nigerian military has countered claims that Cameroonian troops were responsible for the elimination of some terrorists in a cross border raid in Nigeria last week.

A tweet from the handle of the Nigerian Defence Headquarters states, “There was no raid whatsoever by Cameroun or any foreign forces in any part of Nigeria’s territory in pursuit of terrorists as claimed in some reports allegedly quoting Cameroon military authorities."

“All operations ongoing in the environs of Konduga and all associated border locations within the country are completely being undertaken by Nigerian troops.” The statement asserted

The Cameroonian army has yesterday claimed credit for the killing of Boko Harams dreaded Abubakar Shekau. The Cameroun authorities have been showing the photographs of the slain Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau to the public in Cameroun.

The army claimed that he was killed during a cross border raid, deep inside Nigeria by the Cameroon military, yesterday Sunday 21st Sep.

However, while the Nigerian military is yet to officially name some of the top Boko Haram terrorists killed in recent operations, more suspected insurgents have continued to surrender themselves to the troop.

Another set of terrorists surrendered to troops at Kawuri yesterday. Military officials confirmed that those that have surrendered have been taken into custody for necessary security debriefing.
