Morale High: Boko haram in trouble as Nigerian Army stormed Sambisa

I was wondering, Nigerian soldiers were said to be "the best land army in the world"  then i asked myself have the Nigerian army changed? or is it that those days tactics are different or the old soldiers  of those days did not pass on that glory to out today's |Soldiers?
The recent victory over the BokoHaram has given me the right answer to every question and deleted the doubt i had about our army.

Report shows that
"Troops of 28 Task Force Brigade Nigerian Army deployed at Bitta and Pridang yesterday October 27th, carried out a successful raid on suspected Boko Haram terrorists camps at Bulajilin and Manawashe villages along Bita and Damboa road at the fringes of Sambisa forest. The troops were able to kill 30 Boko Haram terrorists" . See the photos after the cut...

The unit also rescued 338 persons that were held captive by the terrorists in the enclaves. A statement by the Nigeria Army spokesperson, said the rescued persons which comprised of 8 male, 138 female and 192 children have since been evacuated to Mubi.

During the raid, the troops were able to recover arms and ammunitions which include 1 General Purpose Machine Gun and 2 Dane Guns, 150 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO), 6 boxes of 7.62mm (NATO) and 3 cutlasses. In a related development, troops based on a tip off, ambushed and killed 4 suspected Boko Haram terrorists on a suicide bombing mission to Gubula, Madagali Local Government Area, Adamawa State.
