Here are pictures of the military base which was recently attacked by Boko Haram insurgents in Yobe state. Some soldiers were reported missing after Boko Haram insurgents overran a military base in the remote part of the North-East, in the second major assault on the armed forces in two days.

The militants invaded the base holding more than 700 soldiers in Yobe State.

Fewer than 100 soldiers returned following the attack, which took place just 24 hours after Boko Haram fighters ambushed a military convoy in neighbouring Borno State on Friday.

Meanwhile, the army has released a press statement to that effect. Read below;

The attention of the Nigerian Army has been drawn to a publication on the front page of Daily Trust Newspaper of Monday, 16 July 2018 titled “BOKO HARAM OVERRUN MILITARY BASE IN YOBE, SOLDIERS MISSING”. In the said story, the report stated inter alia, that “over six hundred soldiers are still missing after suspected Boko Haram militants overran a military base in Yobe state”.

The Nigerian Army wishes to state categorically that the report is not only untrue but capable of misleading members of the general public.

The write-up further alleged that about 100 of the troops that disappeared from the base in Jilli after the clash have reported in Geidam town but very few of them had their weapons with them.

Contrary to the report, the Army wishes to state that, although the base was attacked by suspected Boko Haram insurgents, troops reorganised and successfully repelled the attack and normalcy has since returned to the area. Also, all the troops in the base were accounted for contrary to the report.

Consequently, the Nigerian Army wishes to state that the fight against Boko Haram Terrorists in the North Eastern parts of the country is yielding positive result that lead to the return of some Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) back to their ancestral homes.

If ipob were armed they would stand no chance
Against them

Where was buratai and the python dancers when a complete military base filled with arms and ammunitions was overrun by a technically defeated group.
Seems their power is only aimed at unharmed protesters.

The media is doing us no good in this country.

Many don't know that Bokoharam still a big treat to Nigeria, only that the Government of the day has silent the media in order for us to believe they have been Technically defeated . If you have soldier in the Trouble they will tell you the real fact, How many country in the world has been able to defeat Terrorist in the world hell No? Some country are in even benefiting in this game because they will have to sell ammunition to both side.
Is about Time things will review , let us just fold our harms and watch how the event unfold.

From the pics it's clear the whole battalion was completely and hopelessly routed by Boko haram rag tag force

5000+ plus soldiers was sent to ekiti state governorship election. it will take another years for boko haram menance to be destroy in Nigeria. infact there is another sect now called ''Hakika''

very true, Apc telling Nigerians that they have defeat bokoharam is just a slip of tongue. boko haram has conquered territories in the north east and north west. the nigeria military is even helping them the more to increased in size. i could remember pdp government vividly, Gej government precisely, i could remember that he changed military chieves often. since 3 years ago, buhari never change any military chief. still bokoharam are still shedding innocent blood every day. ortom have done the needful to protect his people. definitely his people first before his party. that is how donald trump conquered his challenges in government. he always put American first in his government, abd till today, it is yielding good results.

Wat a shame!

How can ur military base be overun by rag tag militants in ur own country continously?

When the military base of d United States army in Iraq or Afghanistan was hardly overun by d local militants, talkless of their military bases in their own country.

Thank God twas jst an attempt. Cos if it wasn't, I cannor fit 2 imagine d level of damage.

Can someone please tell lie lai Mohammed dat im looking for him for explanations on why a "technically deafeated terrorist group" is still wreaking havoc upandan
