Terrorists collecting tax from residents of some communities in Borno State had a bad outing on Monday.
The Air Task Force of Operation Hadin Kai eliminated tax collectors of the Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) in Kukawa Local Government Area of Borno State.
The tax collectors, who always moved in groups, according to PRNigeria, were sighted and targeted at different locations while mounting roadblocks to collect taxes and levies from commuters and merchants in the town.
“The airstrike was conducted at Tumbum Kanta and Mangari, close to Baga in Kukawa local government Area of Borno State.
“We couldn’t ascertain the exact figure of the terrorists killed, but they are more than a dozen,” a security operative told PRNigeria.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian troops in a separate gunbattle eliminated another group of ISWAP terrorists in Marte.
Four soldiers and one Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) member who were wounded during the operation were airlifted for medical attention in Maiduguri, the platform reported.
