There are reports that members of the Civilian JTF, a local
vigilante in Adamawa state have "recaptured" Mubi town from Boko Haram
members after they launched a daring night
time attack
between yesterday November 12th and today Nov 13th, defeating the insurgents and driving them out of town.
Confirming
the development to Premium Times, the director of press to the Adamawa
Governor, Phineas Elisha, said the synergy between the vigilante
group and the Nigerian military helped to chase the insurgents out of
the town which they captured two weeks ago
“His Excellency, Governor Bala Ngilari, has confirmed that the combined efforts of the Civilian Vigilante and the Sarkin Bakan Gombi as well as the military has successfully chased away Boko Haram from Mubi town. Some of them (Boko Haram) ran away through Askira Uba and others through Mubi South and the situation in Mubi now is quite different from what it used to be.” he said
