Army Confirms Return Of 39 Missing Soldiers by finalboss1(m): 9:41am On Oct 27, 2016
[b] The Nigerian Army on Wednesday confirmed
the return of 39 soldiers after they were
declared missing last week following an
insurgents attack on Boko Haram group in
the border town of Gashigar in Borno State.
Speaking with Newsmen in Maiduguri, the
Theater Commander of Operation Lafiya
Dole, Major Gen. Lucky Irabor who confirmed
the return of 39 soldiers, also admitted that
a few soldiers were yet to be found after they
embarked in the ongoing operation aimed at
combating terrorist and helping in the release
of the remaining Chibok girls in spite of the
released of the 21 girls by the insurgents.
‘It is true that about 39 soldiers were
declared missing. I want to inform you
that a sizeable number of our soldiers
had returned to base, I think it is only
a handful that have not been found,
operations are ongoing in the area. I
think that we will give you the details
in due course; we have a task before
us that anyone held by the Boko
Haram terrorists must be rescued. We
will do everything possible to rescue
them.’ He also confirmed the arrest of
30 suspects in connection with the
crime of collaborating with the
terrorists. ‘So far, we have arrested 30
suspects in connection with the crime
of collaborating with the terrorists. We
have four soldiers, two policemen,
vigilantes and other civilians, for some
reasons we cannot give out their
names for now, but we will do that at
the end of the investigation.’[/b]

The ogas at defence headquarter should stop diverting soldiers food allowance.No soldier can fight terrorists with an empty stomach.
Moreover,they should not court-martial the whistleblowers for disclosing their poor living conditions.
