Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Yusufu Buratai yesterday visited Gajigana, Magumeri Local Government Area of Borno State, which was attacked by Boko Haram terrorists on Sunday.

He was received and conducted round troops’ deployment by the Commander 5 Brigade and the Commanding Officer of 243 Battalion.

The Chief of Army Staff while fielding questions from journalists that accompanied him, stated that he was there to see things for himself, asses the situation and give necessary directives.


Speaking further with the Commanders, he expressed dissatisfaction with the troops conduct and warned that such incident should not repeat itself.

The troops were reported to have fled their base after Boko Haram members nearly overpowered them in Gulak.

Buratai also called on the public, especially those residing in the affected area to support and cooperate with the troops by exposing suspected Boko Haram terrorists that live among them.

He stated that the recent wave of attacks by terrorists in Gulak and Gajigana should be seen as isolated, assuring that adequate measures were being taken to deal decisively with any such occurrences.


The COAS also assured that the military and the security agencies would continue to improve their performances.

He was accompanied by the Theatre Commander, Operation LAFIYA DOLE, General Officer Commanding 7 Division, Acting Director Military Intelligence and the Acting Provost Marshal (Army).
Also on the entourage were representatives of Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps and the Nigerian Police attached to the Military Command and Control Centre.

The troops, during the Gulak attack, killed 3 Boko Haram terrorists, while a number escaped with gun shot wounds. One soldier lost his life.

They recovered a Toyota Hilux, 1 PKM gun, 1 General Purpose Machine Gun, 3 AK-47 rifles, 1 Rocket Propelled Grenade tube and 1 Rocket Propelled Grenade bomb.

Other recoveries include, 1 Charger, 7 Boxes of 7.62mm Link, 1 GP 340 Hand Held Radio, 4 Boxes of 7.62mm X 54mm Ammunitions, 3 Anti Riot Hand Held Grenade, as well as 30 Cleaning Kits, 2 Packets of Artillery Primers and 97 pieces of Zela fuse.

Why them nor go run

To me you and ur master buhari are the first runners, cos u promise 2 lead the war against boko haram bt the case today is different.

They will run from boko haram but in the other hand they are warning and shooting at unarmed IPOB protesters.Cowards in military uniform.

Hehe this man na mumu o

...

yah! stand there and died for your wonderful country, where the are no good roads, no healthcare, no good schools and the leaders steal all the money for themselves and send their children abroad, while you a gullible zombie dies in vain.


All, Hail the Great Nigeria!

The useless Buruntashi should learn to lead from the front then he can be justified in making noise.When he is hiding in his cozy office in Abuja he wants other people's children to go and die at the battle field.That reminds me, the useless dullard promised to lead the book haram war from the battle front but all we have seen so far is he attending fashion parades in malta

Don't mind those cowards,they only develop strength when unarmed civillians are involved

Buratai must be high on cheap crack. Why not join in the war front to show example to our boys

Yet some goons on NL are salivating on illusion that Nigeria army will deal with armed IPOB. The disintegration of the zoo called Nigeria shall be on the after burner if the IPOB decides to pick up arms.

Seriously I wonder how this army should cope should the ND militancy resume and IPOB should decide to pick up arms!!! I wonder how our military institutions became so weak.Buhari made so much noise about reviving the army yet nothing has been done in th last six months

Make dem die throway

This reporting is classic police report of "killing some boko haram, some escaped with bullet wounds, and assorted weapons were recovered"
If the army turned tail and ran away enmasse as the Army Chief has just confirmed himself, then is it ghost soldiers from another planet that was pursuing the escaping terrorists and also captured all those weapons? Something does not jive about the story. Somebody is lying.

The Nigerian army is lying to Nigerians on a grand scale and hiding the extent of the drubbing the poorly equipped army received at Gulak.
They are also hiding the bodies of the fallen soldiers and burying them quietly. Till date the commander of the sacked unit, some officers and many soldiers are yet to be accounted for

LOL..Why wouldnt they run when the news of the death/missing of over 100 soldiers are hidden from their families, friends and Nigerians at large....

Funny country...

Why won't they run?....u should come nd lead the war...MUMU

Don't mind him, when the ex military head( GMB) now PMB made himself Minister of Petroleum resources (OIL) instead of minister of Defense to take charge fully, what do u expect from the soldiers? We are already in December oo abi them don shift d deadline to January ne?

My brother, do you blame them?. The wives and children of some deceased soldiers are suffering because their entitlements are not paid. Children dropped out of school because no money for school fees.

I also met some retired soldiers complaining bitterly how their entitlements are not paid. That one finance minister even called retired soldiers "dead woods" when they agitated for payment of their benefits.

Its like the soldiers are realising that the country is not worth dying for. Politicians are looting resources as if there is no tomorrow.
