The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) operation under Operation Hadin Kai eliminated the terrorists at Kirta Wulgo in Borno State.

Ari, Commander in charge of Kirta Wulgo and mercenaries fabricating Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) for ISWAP died in the operation.

“Some were seen with weapons around a make-shift structure, a likely indication that the structure might have had a high calibre terrorist target.

“The structures were burnt and destroyed at the fringes. Several ISWAP fighters were neutralized including Mallam Ari, the Fiya of Kirta Wulgo,”

Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, NAF spokesperson, confirmed that the bombardment was successful.
