This was disclosed in a statement issued by the Director of Public Relations and Information of Nigerian Air Force, Air Commodore Dele Alonge.
The statement reads inter alia: “the items, suspected to be supplies meant for BHT(Boko Haran Terrorists), were confiscated from the smugglers in Pepe, Dashin-Hausa, Belel Bilachi, and Konkul villages located along the Nigeria-Cameroon Borders on Tuesday, 28 July 2015.
“NAF was able to achieve the recent feat through its air patrol activities, covering both land and water, along the Nigeria-Cameroon boarders.
“NAF has continued to identify and destroy BHT camps and resupplies by employing surveillance and combat aircraft.
“Intelligence gathered revealed that these efforts have greatly strained the supply efforts of the BHT”.
