The youths reportedly acted immediately after were told by a local food vendor that the militants were coming to get food before heading out for a major operation to raid several villages in the area, which they usually do at night.
With this vital information, the vigilantes mobilized themselves, then laid ambush and patiently waited for the terrorists which were numbering about 100. The vigilantes then attacked them after they showed up later at night to pick up their meal, killing most of them and arresting the ones that survived the attack.
Today's attack marks the second time this week that local vigilantes have defeated Boko Haram men.
