STATEHOUSE PRESS STATEMENT PRESIDENT TINUBU'S MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE TO CHIMAMANDA ADICHIE AND HER FAMILY With a deep sense of grief, I condole with Ms Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, her husband, Dr Ivara Esege, and the entire family on the passing of their son, Nkanu Nnamdi. As a parent myself who has suffered the loss of a loved one, no grief is as devastating as losing a child. I empathise with the family at this difficult time, and I mourn this sad loss with them. Ms Adichie is a literary icon who has brought joy and light to many homes globally, and I pray she and her family find strength in the Almighty in this trying hour. My prayers are with the family.

At the early hours of sunday the 24th of April 2016,troops of 81 Battalion and some elements of 251 Task Force Battalion,25 Brigade,ambushed suspected Boko Haram terorists escaping from Sambisa forest to Fulawani village.The Ambushed terrorists were trying to link up with other terrorists or member of their families to relocate to other places.It will be recalled that the troops intercepted a group of women and children yesterday who claimed to have escaped from the terrorists enclave in Sambisa forest.However,during screening and interrogation,it was confirmed that they were the terrorist's advance party relocating to a new safe haven following intense tactical operations by troops.The troops sprang a surprise ambush on the group of escaping terrorists from Sambisa forest crossing towards Alagamo mounted on motorcycles and bicycles,killing 5 of them and recovering a number of items.These include 5 motorcycles,9 bicycles,80 new pairs of bathroom slippers,assorted laundry items,polythene bags and mats.From all indication,the terrorists intended to link up with their wives and children earlier mentioned,who were obviously despatched to wait for them close to Fulawani for onward movement to other locations.It is also assessed that the recovered items were for sale in other locations where remnants of the terrorists were hiding but in dire need of logistics.Further investigation also revealed that the terrorists were fleeing Sambisa forest to other areas for safety as they could no longer withstand the continued bombardment by both Nigerian Air Force and the ground troops.-Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman,Acting Director Army Public Relations.More photos below.
