Nigerian Army Retakes Boko Haram Headquarters in Gwoza

The Nigerian army says it has retaken the north-eastern town of Gwoza, believed to be the headquarters of militant Islamist group Boko Haram.

"Several terrorists died while many are captured," a tweet from the defences forces said.

Mopping-up operations are ongoing in and around the town, the military said.

News of the recapture comes a day before presidential elections, which were postponed by six weeks because of the offensive against Boko Haram.

Many thousands of people have been killed since 2009, when the group began its insurgency to create an Islamic state.
