It appears Nigerian troops will head to Sambisa Forest, in Borno state on Saturday, April 4.

The troops that will advance to Sambisa are made up of the elite force of the military and soldiers specially trained for rescue operations.

TheCable report stated that a soldier participating in the operation said it is expected to be an important engagement in the war against insurgency in the northeast.

“We are advancing to Sambisa on Saturday to flush out the militants from their last stronghold. It is going to be a decisive battle because we have expelled the militants from other two states in the northeast. We have specialised rescue teams who will be participating in the operation.
