The newly formed 7th division of the Nigerian Army, established
to repress insurgency in the northeast, participated in the raid. This was as
disclosed by the Military spokesman in Maiduguri, the Bornu state capital, Lt.
Col. Sagir Musa. He said the attack on the camp also involved a supporting
military gunship. For the past two days,
Military helicopters have been seen hovering in the skies near Maiduguri.
The counterattack, according to Musa, took place around
Bulabulin-Ngaura and in Gajiram village, where 15 people fell to the dreaded
sects on Wednesday at a local market.
"Troops pursued the terrorists to their camps and
destroyed the camps with air support," he said.
