During a battle in Borno State, North East Nigeria, the Islamic State of West African Province (ISWAP) militants killed several Boko Haram members and commanders.
Over 41 terrorists were slain in a battle for supremacy between the two factions on Wednesday in Duguri, Kukawa Local Government Area (LGA) of the state, as previously reported by New Telegraph.
ISWAP attacked Boko Haram fighters, according to Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency expert in the Lake Chad region.
