The Defence Headquarters has dismissed the claim by the Boko Haram terrorists that the recent massacre of rice farmers in Borno was retaliation for the arrest of one of them.
The Coordinator, Defence Media Operations, John Enenche, said this while giving an update on the operations of the armed forces between Nov. 26 and Dec. 2 on Thursday in Abuja.
The terrorist group had on Tuesday released a video claiming that the terrorists carried out the massacre in retaliation for the arrest of one of them by the farmers.
