NEWSBoko Haram: Terrorists Kill 8 soldiers in Yobe Published on October 25, 2017 By Maina Maina

Eight soldiers are reportedly feared killed after Boko Haram terrorists launched attack on a military base in Sasawa, a community close to Damaturu, the Yobe State capital.

The spokesman of 3 Div. Nigerian Army, Col. Kayode Ogunsanya confirmed the attack but could not give details of the casualty figure.

He, however, stated that “there was casualty on both side of the army and the insurgents”.

But a soldier who survived the attack told DAILY POST that eight soldiers, including an officer and a civilian were killed in the attack.

He also added that many soldiers took to their heels after sighting the insurgents driving into the community with about seven gun trucks and others riding on motorcycles.

“I can authoritatively confirm to you that there was an attack at dawn yesterday at Sasawa and eight soldiers, including an officer as well as a civilian were killed during the raid.

“The insurgents overran the military base having come with seven gun trucks.

“Many of our colleagues ran for their lives because the fire power of the insurgents was much and our guys had to take cover,” the source said.

Sasawa is one of the communities that was under the control of the insurgents before being liberated by security forces, with an established military base.

All they want is Islamic state no harm in that

Ok,let see who will win between Boko haram and the military

I was expecting Python to dance but the reverse is the Case.

So sad these soldiers have been sacrificed to continue to oil the propaganda machine of this senseless and wicked government they were RIP soldiers.
Meanwhile the hypocritical government have been innudiating Nigerians with propaganda earlier today on how Shekau's wife was killed during air straffing while Shekau himself evaded the assult.Shame on Buhari.

25 billion scam, I'm still thinking about it.

they want to distract me Noooo

This was the story they were hiding from us but the released the military killed shekau's wife story

one last thing, how. one the fire power of boko haram is stronger than the Nigerian military that the military men ran out of their base?

It is clear these guys have not been degraded in anyway.

nice one

If nah to fight civilians now, this useless soldiers go get power

If our media houses hasn't been gagged by this administration, you people will be shocked about what BH do to NA up north (Maiduguri). If u have a friend in the army just ask him to tell you stories, you will be shocked.

I think it will be better to post soldiers to their geopolitical zones of origin. That way, boko haram will be left with their soldier brothers, ipob with their Igbo soldiers, SS militants with theirs and af0nja with theirs.

Meanwhile God punish Lai Mohammed for technically defeating book haram.

Zombies have your say

Python dance is on top of the situation

If it's civilians they (military) will trim them like grass and them do show. Chai!!! The fear of Boko Haram is the beginning of wisdom to Naija Soldiers.

RIP Gallant Soldiers

RIP Gallant Soldiers

Kill them all because attack to boko haram is attack to north.
Useless soldier ant that are only good in killing unarm peaceful protesters .



This what we call boko dance.

Lai Mohammed oya over

I guess i was supposed to cry for the soldiers?

Nothing is right anymore in Nigeria

BeeBeeOoh:

Nonsense lies. Media houses are gagged, yet Punch, a supposedly Pro North media outlet, according to you Igbos, still reports first-hand attacks on the military? Easy with the lies next time.

the blood of the dead will be upon those that ran away. They broke formation,thereby weakening and falling the moral.

nwanna89:
It is clear these guys have not been degraded in anyway.

Zombies will say that it is Jonathan's men sabotaging the effort of the most corrupt and criminal government.

Our Transgender soldiers.

Only show muscle where unarmed citizens are.

Whenever I remember d cold way these cowards killed my brothers, I don't pity them any longer. let them get what they deserve.
