He said a large quantity of IEDs, including those commonly used by suicide bombers, were recovered from the site.

The factory, which was located in a fertilizer company, has also converted some of the materials therein for production of all types of IEDs.

“It is believed that the heavy calibre bomb used in blowing up the bridge between Damaturu and Buni Yadi was produced in the factory,” the statement read.

The terrorists were sacked from Buni Yadi after a military assault that was conducted last Saturday.

The troops advance was delayed by the series of IEDs planted on the highway leading to Buni Yadi.

Four soldiers died from such IEDs in the course of the operation to clear terrorists from the town.

Major General Olukolade expressed optimism that the discovery would degrade the capability of terrorists in the production of explosives, which they have been using lavishly in the area until they were dislodged from their stronghold."
