Sources said the ambush team, at about 1:13 a.m. on Wednesday , made contact with suspected Boko Haram fighters.
During the encounter, the troops engaged the terrorists, forcing them to flee in disarray. A subsequent exploitation of the area led to the discovery of one neutralised insurgent.
Items recovered at the scene included a bicycle, half bag of local gum (karow), and four packs of spaghetti.
