The Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) has neutralised 310 terrorists and dismantled critical logistics bases in Lake Chad region.

Troops of the task force killed the terrorists during Operation Lake Sanity 2, a major offensive designed to combat insurgency in the region.

“Additionally, over 800 terrorists and their families surrendered, indicating a decline in support for terrorism”.

While acknowledged the contributions of the operations such as Amnifakat, Gamma Aiki, Yankin Tafki 1 and 2, and Lake Sanity 2, Salau attributed its advancements to the unwavering support by the troops contributing countries and the Lake Chad Basin Development Commission.
