According to reports from Nigeria's Leadership newspaper, the terrorist group Boko Haram have re-regroup at their main camp in the Sambisa forest where it looks like they are ready for a final showdown with the Nigerian army.

The impressive progress of the Nigerian troops were halted by the discovery of landmines along the route. 

It appears the Nigerian troops have ruled out bombing the area dues to the prospects of still finding Boko Haram captives including the missing Chibok girls alive. 

Excerpts from Leadership Newspaper:

“All their fighters who were pushed out of Bama, Dikwa, Gwoza and Damboa (in Borno State) all moved to Boko Haram camps in Sambisa.

“They (Boko Haram) have buried landmines all over the routes leading to their camps in the forest, which is no doubt a huge obstacle retarding the military offensive against them,” he said.
