Landmine Kills 5 Soldiers, Injures 15 Others In Borno by agwom(m): 7:50am On Jan 16, 2021
Five soldiers, including an officer from the 117 Battalion, 28 Task Force Brigade, have been killed while 15 others were injured when they ran into landmines planted by Boko Haram insurgents during an operation in a remote village in the southern part of Borno State on Thursday, sources said.

It was learnt that the incident happened at 10.20am near Kwada Kwamtah Yahi village in Chibok Local Government Area of Borno when their vehicle ran over a massive bomb that exploded, killing one army officer and four others.

A top vigilante member, Yohanna Bitrus, who was part of the troops’ clearance operations in Kwada Kwamtah Yahi village, disclosed that a utility operation vehicle ran over a buried improvised explosive device (IED) and loud explosions ensued, resulting in casualties among troops in the two Hilux vehicles.

“It was a sad encounter for us in Chibok when our escort commander’s car ran over a landmine and the van was damaged completely.

“I saw the vehicle being tossed up into the air. We managed and summoned courage to evacuate the corpses of the fallen heroes including a lieutenant and four soldiers.

“Not fewer than 15 others sustained various degrees of injuries; they are currently receiving medical care at 28 Task Force Bridge Clinic in Chibok,” he said.

A security source also confirmed the landmines attack on troops’ convoy to our correspondent.

“It happened yesterday; we lost some gallant soldiers but that won’t deter our determination to wipe them out in our current campaigns,” the security source said.

If there was job available most of these men will not go into Military job.

now they died Sara for a government that does not care. later they will organise one useless armed forces remembrance day.

if your brother wants to join the military make sure he marries first and give birth to a baby.

What a sad news.
RIP to our fallen heroes.


Disclaimer12:
Nigerians are the strangest set of people honestly, we love reading bad news from the country than good news, always eager to drag the country down at every given opportunity, type news from Nigeria on the internet and read the comments ,you'll cry ! We've forgotten Nigeria is never about Buhari, APC or PDP, you cry about non securing a job while your comments on the internet can drive a potential investors away, you cried about the tourism industry, while you hides behind your phone and type many unprintable words about your nation!
You'll read irritating comments from many that has vowed never to be happy when there's good news from the country ! Nawa for una o
You have spoken well.
Same thing we have been saying on a weekly basis here.
God bless your parents for giving us a King like you.
It is always good and refreshing to see we still have reasonable members like you on this forum.
All the enemies of Nigeria will be put to shame las las.
As long as they never want to read any good news about Nigeria (what consist of Nigeria if not the people living in it),
Good news will always be far from them in life.
Children of hate, frustrations and perdition will all end frustrated in life.
If you love Nigeria (the people) good things will always locate you in life, and we will leap for joy at the end.
Swines, stay of this post, but if you are one, then quote to say rubbish, let sane and good Nairalanders know you today! tongue

Since non of your family members are in the military.
Now, you can run your mouth cos this is the kind of sad news you have been login in and out of Nairaland to read and hyperventilate on. May God have mercy on your soul.

Nigeriadondie:

Because of some face lifting you say we will get there.
We are getting nowhere.
If that is your prayer for you and your family, may God grant it on your behalf.
If you don't want to get to somewhere good and prosperous, no one is forcing you to.
As for good, positive minded and sane Nigerians, we will get there.
And next time, kindly check the moniker you are quoting before bringing any negative vibes around....okay?

Rest in Peace to our fallen heroes who have been sacrificing their lives for this headless and meaningless country.

Meanwhile, how sure are we that it wasn't a direct attack from Boko boys since they told us they have weakened the boys, hence they wouldn't want to complicate issues.

But when will all this stop. This army officers that are been killed on a daily basis have families too Na. What is so difficult in wiping out this terrorist and yet the government keep budgeting billions upon billions to fight insurgency every year. This is so unfair to those fighting this so called yeye insurgency.

They paid the Supreme sacrifice for our today. May thegood lord rest their souls, amen. This clearly shows that the offensive power of BH has being undermined by the military campaign, that is why they now resort to planting IEDs on the path of troops since they can't confront troops in an all out shootout as they used to. God bless the Nigerian Armed forces.
