Scores of Boko Haram insurgents have been killed by Chadian Forces at the entrance of the presidential residence in Ndjamena, Chad when the terrorists on Wednesday night attempted to attack country’s presidential palace.
Credible sources said that several of the terrorists were killed while others were captured alive.
Meanwhile, the government of Chad has asked citizens to remain calm following the attempted attack on the country’s presidential palace in Ndjamena.
The country’s Minister of Defence, Abderamane Koullamallah, who also doubles as the spokesperson of the Chadian government, assured the entire country that government is on top of the situation.
The minister made this known shortly after Chadian security personnel repelled the attack by Boko Haram terrorists.
The troops killed an undisclosed number of the terrorists as they matched towards the country’s seat of power, a source who craved anonymity said.
The government assured that the armed forces are on high alert to ensure law and order in the country at the cost of their lives.
‘I would like to reassure all Chadians that the situation is under control,” the minister said.
