By GhanaSummary NewsroomNigeria

The terrorist was killed alongside several other members of his group in the operation involving troops of the Nigerian Army, operatives of State Security Services (SSS), and the Western Nigeria Security Network, Amotekun.

It was gathered that the operation was carried out after intelligence indicated that the ISWAP commander was planning attacks against civilians in parts of southern Nigeria, particularly during the forthcoming Yuletide period.

Spurces indicated that after Mr Ikrimah was arrested, Mr Ohida assumed command within ISWAP’s operations across parts of the North-central and southern regions, allegedly coordinating attacks and efforts to expand the terrorist group’s presence.
