Nigeria Claims To Have Destroyed Boko Haram's Headquarters



VOA: Nigerian Military Says Boko Haram 'Headquarters' Taken

The Nigerian military says soldiers have retaken the town of Gwoza, one of the last areas in northeastern Nigeria controlled by militant group Boko Haram.

The military says on Twitter that troops captured the Borno state town on Friday morning and destroyed the headquarters of Boko Haram's self-declared caliphate. It said more details would follow.

The unconfirmed report came out 24 hours before Nigerians go to the polls for presidential and parliamentary elections.

WNU Editor: The Nigerians have their presidential and parliamentary elections tomorrow .... but it is today that the Nigerian military has decided to make this unconfirmed announcement. For some reason I am very skeptical of this report.

Update: I have more confidence in this report .... Chad Strongman Says Nigeria Is Absent in Fight Against Boko Haram (New York Times).
