Following an extensive battle the previous day, Boko Haram again returns to Konduga (presumably to retrieve their dead) and is engaged into another battle. Sixty reported Boko Haram deaths, military forces wound and kill a notable commander, later revealed to be Abubakar Shekau, though Shekau may have been captured in nearby Benisheikh. A matter of dispute: some believe this may have been a been a body double. It was gathered that when the militants discovered that Konduga was a no go area, they headed to nearby Benisheikh and laid ambush for troops on patrol duties. |
