Boko Haram Militants Overrun Prestigious Mobile Police Training College In Gwoza by olatade(m): 12:23am On Aug 21, 2014 |
Police sources told Saharareporters that the college had five units in training with each unit having 59 trainees and unit commander. The units affect were two Mobile Police(MOPOL) units from Nasarawa, Gombe and MOPOL 50 from Abuja. Two other units from Zamfara were also at the college during the attack. Boko Haram militants earlier today invaded a prestigious Nigerian Police training college in Gwoza, Borno state. The militants numbering 200 arrived the Police Mobile Force Training School with five armored tanks earlier seized from the Nigerian army units that tried unsuccessfully to dislodge the sect from Gwoza in the last two weeks. Police sources told Saharareporters that the college had five units in training with each unit having 59 trainees and unit commander. The units affect were two Mobile Police(MOPOL) units from Nasarawa, Gombe and MOPOL 50 from Abuja. Two other units from Zamfara were also at the college during the attack. Several of the trainees were reportedly killed and injured by the militants. A good number of the trainees also fled to the mountains nearby while some of the trainees managed to escape to Adamawa state. A police source told Saharareporters that the militants blew up an armored tank stationed at the gate of the training college before gaining entrance into the school and wreaking havoc. Boko Haram took over Gwoza some two weeks ago, hoisted its flag and appointed an Emir to administer the strategic northeastern township. Attempts by the Nigerian army to retake the town has been repelled by the militants in deadly counter attacks that have claimed several Nigerian soldiers. New efforts at mobilize troops to march on Gwoza has been bogged by mutiny by troops and their families who simply refuse to take orders from their superiors to take on Boko Haram fighters as they express concern that their weaponry cannot match those of Boko Haram. http://saharareporters.com/2014/08/20/boko-haram-militants-overrun-prestigious-mobile-police-training-college-gwoza 5 Likes |

Suprised the MOPOL school was still in session , I tot it would have been abandoned long time ago during the onset of the insurgency because it was sure to be an attractive target to Boko haram fighter for the bragging rights and easy rifles, flash grenades, bullets, boots and helmets from the schools S\T and armoury. Its surprising the govt stiil left rookie MOPOL in a town that had been overun by insurgent under the watch of the ARMY and the Army couldn't and still can't do nothing about it almost a month later. 53 Likes |

Don't despair dudes. What we are seeing is an act of desperation by the terrorists group to create the impression that our military are not doing enough. Do not be deceived! Boko Haram is getting the heat from our gallant soldiers. Nigeria is gradually winning the war against terrorism. Note: All these news about our Soldiers not being well equipped might be a propaganda to deliberately cause anger against the Federal Government. Pls Don't be deceived. 34 Likes |

lakpalakpa: When Israel engaged Hamas about two years ago Hamas where like, yes we're re winning the war. Soon after the conflict Hamas suffered thousands of casualties and Israel lost 23 people. Even after the conflict Hamas believed they won the war. That's sort of how Terrorist go about their diabolical acts. They employ the use of Violence and Media propaganda to cause Terror in the minds of the people. Remember the number one aim of terrorist world wide is to create fear. It becomes easier for them to manipulate people into submission. That's exactly what Boko Haram terrorist are doing. To make people believe they're are winning. 51 Likes |

onatisi: I won't dispute what u believe in but whatt gives u the impression tt that the nigeria army has this situation under controlIn war situations there's what the military termed 'desperate attack'. Desperate attacks as the word imply described the situation where the enemy who is seriously on the defensive tries to create the impression that it's really on the offensive. They are willing to go the extra mile to do the unimaginable, like attack a barracks for instance. These are strategies used by the enemy to divert bombardments from themselves and buy time. That is exactly what is playing out in Nigeria's fight against Boko Haram lately. 13 Likes |

deeobserver209: Sit down there and keep talking. Guy Boko Haram is changing before our very eyes from a rag-tag guerilla group into a conventional and formidable military force. They are also changing tactics from pure guerilla hit-and-run attacks to more conventional way of fighting and they have embarked on holding territory and spreading their hold to the next one. I predicted (5 years ago) that this would happen and even informed my friends in the SSS so that our military could plan ahead and prevent such bit unfortunately nothing seem to have being done. Let everybody in every nook and crany of Nigeria be concerned about what is happening in Borno State. If our Army is defeated there then the whole Nigeria is gone. It would just be a matter of time. Pls you can quote me anywhere on this. 32 Likes |
