Dozens of suspected ISWAP fighters ambushed a military convoy along Gubio/Damasak highway in the northern part of Borno State on Saturday.

Unspecified number of soldiers reportedly sustained injuries in the attack while utility vehicles belonging to the troops were forcefully taken away after a gun battle.

The soldiers ran into the ambush at Kareto while traveling to Gubio in Borno State to pick APC members for their ward congress billed for Damasak.

Kareto is the hometown of Bukar Gana Kareto, who represents Kukawa/ Guzamala/Abadam/ Mobbar Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.

Kareto has been abandoned for years due to the activities of Boko Haram/ISWAP.

The soldiers were supposed to accompany the politicians from Abadam to Damasak, venue of their Ward Congress.

Although Abadam Local Government has been a no go area since 2014, politicians from the LGA were mobilised for congress in Damasak but the incident did not allow them attend the congress as they returned to Gubio.

The military authorities are yet to react to this attack.

Any Christian, middle beltan or southerner that is still serving in the Nigerian army or accepting to go to the north to face insurance is a fool...
The north knows exactly what is happening in their region, it is their own creation for a purpose best known to them so no none Northern Muslim should die for such unreasonable mission...

Kareto has been abandoned for years due to the activities of Boko Haram/ISWAP.

Can you imagine, the people in that village have been living at the mercy of Boko Haram.

But anyways, it’s a family issue, as long they keep their madness in the north. No problem

It is none of my business.
When they are ready to deal with ISWAP we will know.
They could do it to ESN but they can't do it to ISWAP, Boko Haram and Fulani Herdsmen.

Till then, abeg who knows if Abba Kyari's tailor can sew that Ebuka's jump up native?

This kind of battles suits the airforce, not army. You're going into an area that is filled with boko haram terrorists and yet you didn't bother to call Air support. Did the airforce even know of this mission? Very Pathetic of the Nigerian military

Gone are the days where you feel secured seeing a military personnel around.

These days, traveling in a military convoy still doesn't guarantee safety.

Finally, my brethren - safety is of the Lord. cool
