In the aftermath of the March 6 Boko Haram-claimed attack on a military base in Ngoshe, Gwoza LGA, Borno State Governor Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum attributed the incident to insurgents displaced from their Sambisa forest stronghold.
Following Boko Haram's claimed assault on a military base in Ngoshe on March 6, 2026—where terrorists reported killing soldiers and vowing to establish a caliphate—Borno State Governor Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum stated that the attack stemmed from insurgents being driven out of Sambisa forest. Zulum explained that the militants struck the community after being chased from their stronghold. This development highlights the persistent security challenges in Borno, where military operations against Boko Haram and affiliates continue to displace fighters, leading to spillover attacks. The governor's comments emphasize the dynamic insurgent movements in the region. No additional details on casualties or response were mentioned.
