The true story of how Nigerian soldiers captured Sambisa forest is yet to be told but a glimpse of the activities of the gallant troops have emerged.
Some of the soldiers were seen in tree camouflages. Some were seen wading through the stream in Sambisa while some camouflaged as bushes in what a top security expert called human camouflage.
