Military set to recapture Bama

The Nigerian military is set to recapture Bama town, one of which the Boko Haram Sect have troubled since September last year.

 
Troops of the 7 division of the Nigerian Army have reportedly mobilised for the swiftest and fiercest ground battle in the renewed onslaught against the militants.

This comes after, at least 20 people have been killed and many others injured at the Monday market in Borno state capital, Maiduguri, after a female suicide bomber detonated a bomb there.

The blast is said to be the seventh at the market in the past one year
