location: Bama
notes: Military forces oust Boko Haram from Bama following a series of air raids. It is not clear if the two sides battled in close combat in the town. Boko Haram burned the town and killed several villagers (many of whom included their conscripted wives) before their exit. The number of VOC dead are recorded as 'dozens.'
