Up to 100 bodies have been found in a mass grave near the Nigerian town of Damasak, after troops from Chad and Nigeria liberated the locality from Boko Haram militants.
…
The mass grave of dozens of bodies, some beheaded, was found by Niger and Chad soldiers under a concrete bridge on one of the main roads leading out of Damasak.
Azem Bermandoa Agouna, a colonel of the Chadian army, told the AFT news agency that he had seen “about 100 bodies spread under a bridge just outside the town. There are heads here and bodies there, the mass grave has become like a termite mound.” Reuters says witnesses counted some 70 corpses.

It’s suggested that the massacre happened some time ago as some of the bodies were severely decomposed, while others were partially mummified by the dry desert air. The colonel said the atrocity might have occurred two months ago and added: “This is the work of Boko Haram.”
The imam of the town was also found among the dead people. Witnesses say there could still be more bodies, as the smell of decomposition around the town is quite strong.
The grave was found after Niger and Chad troops recaptured Damasak in an intensive ground and air offensive launched last Saturday.
When Boko Haram gained control over Damasak in November, its militants killed about 50 residents and forced another 3,000 to leave the town, according to the UN’s High Commissioner for Refugees.
This year Chad, Niger and Cameroon have united to destroy Boko Haram, because Nigeria had failed for years to do this independently. The operation was called “Mai Dounama”, after the name of a 13th-century emperor of Borno province in northern Nigeria.
The country has announced major recent gains achieved with the help of its coalition partners. Two of the three worst hit states – Yobe and Adamawa – have been declared “cleared,” and the last one, Borno, is planned to be liberated “within a month.”
Some 36 localities, including major towns such as Bama and Dikwa, have been recaptured, with just three said to be still in rebel hands.
The events are taking place ahead of presidential elections scheduled for March 28 in Nigeria, Africa’s most populated country and biggest economy. Incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan has been slammed for his government’s failure to stop the violence.
Over the last six years, Boko Haram has killed more than 13,000 people in their aim to establish an Islamic caliphate in northeast Nigeria. Their actions initially began as a campaign against Western education.
The group has recently pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq. http://www.maxgist.com/2015/03/new-boko-haram-victims-mass-grave-of.html

Too bad

Are they boko haram..... if they are they don't deserve a grave na! They don't have fire and petrol?

Boko haram members are animals, this was why many people were shocked when Buhari compared them to militants in the Niger delta.

Since you say Buhari is giving orders to Boko Haram.....I would like you to post your proof....pictures and otherwise...of Buhari being a sponsor of Boko Haram.....

I also throw the same challenge to anyone saying GEJ is behind Boko Haram....post your proof here.

Or , tell the truth that you both are telling lies, apologize....and stop telling lies.

You are entitled to dislike someone....but dislike does not equal right to smear.

I am not a Buhari supporter.....but I am honestly getting sick and tired of the lies and tales flowing around. And the same goes for those saying that GEJ is behind Boko. It is a lie....and you know it.

sad.. but they deserve worst..

I just know that Daris God

RIP to the dead
btwn dont ask what buhari can do for you...
Rather ask what you can do for buhari {
#neveragain

Hmmm

I feel so sorry and pity for vibrant Nigerian youth on Nairaland, when they create misunderstanding between each other with the Buhari and Jonathan issue, how do you expect a confused president to lead a country, and how can a aspiring presidential candidate lead a country when he is been funded by corrupt politicians. Jonathan is not moving us to the promise land, Buhari will fail whole fully if he tries to, I weep for my country simply because our youth can't take the responsibility of a future leader! Oh Nigeria I cry for thee... We want change and that change is revolution, not the miserable PDP and APC corrupt mongers change or continuity.

Please send dis picture 2 Gen.boko-hari may be it wil touch him 2 talk 2 his boyz...tell him dat NA ar winnin d war...

More of diz plsssss....God bless our country #GMB

Na wao see as human life just dey waste in the hands of bokoharam.

NA WA....ALL THESE WOULD SOON BE OVER...
