The Boko Haram commander was killed during the battle of Malamfatoria, in a joint raid carried out by Nigerian troops and their counterparts from Chad, Niger and Cameroon.
Although his identity could not be immediately ascertained, it is believed that he was one of the top officers to the founder of the Boko Haram sect, Muhammad Yusuf.
The top commander of the insurgents was killed in an air raid by helicopter gunships of the Nigerian Air Force involved in the combined operation with ground forces during the fight to reclaim some border towns from the insurgents.
