In the ongoing Operation, Yanci Tafki, against Boko Haram terrorist, information from captured and defected Boko Haram fighters indicates that the leadership of Boko Haram terrorist network has been overwhelmed and are currently in disarray.
Colonel Timothy Antigha, Chief of Military Public Information, MNJTF who disclosed this said that the former fighters who are receiving humane attention further divulged that morale and fighting spirit of Boko Haram fighters is very low as a result of growing insecurity and the inability to replenish stranded fighters in the islands with food, medicine and ammunition.
It would be recalled that an integral part of Operation Yanci Tafki, has been a series of well-coordinated day and night Human Intelligence as well as Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions conducted by the Air Forces of the Lake Chad Basin countries; Chad, Cameroon, Niger and Nigeria. 
Killed Boko Haram Fighters
Troops comprising air and land components of the task force from Chad, Cameroon, Niger Republic and Nigeria, killed the terrorists in a separate encounter, Naija News reports.
This leads to successful and devastating air interdictions which have destroyed Boko Haram logistic facilities and fighters in TUMBUM GINI, ABADAM, AREGE, TUMBUN REGO and DAGAYA environs between 7 and 11 March 2019 .
Additionally, In the last 4 weeks of the Operation, about 70 Boko Haram vehicles; mostly Gun Trucks, facilities; such as fuel dumps, weapons and ammunition have been destroyed.
Furthermore, since the commencement of the Operation Yanci Tafki several terrorists have surrendered while others are battle-weary and have indicated interest to surrender.
Morale of fighters is at its lowest, while desperation has also set in, leading to intrigues and in-fighting.
Reliable sources say internal crisis led to change of Boko Haram leadership on 3 March 2019, it could be recalled that the Islamic State West Africa Province announced the sack of the former Boko Haram Chief, Abu Mus’ab AL Barnawi and the appointment of Abu Abdullahi Ibn Umar AL Barnawi.
The frequent execution of Boko Haram Commanders and fighters which have been observed in the past few months as well as the recent replacement of its leadership are clear indications of the effectiveness of recent past and ongoing OPERATION YACIN TAFKI.
The Multinational Joint Task Force is therefore poised to sustain current operations until Boko Haram capitulates and its leadership brought to justice.
