RIP to our gallant soldiers！So sad that the dirty politics of Nigeria has allowed this inglorious bandits cum terrorists to be rooted here in Nigeria,it was easier to stop these b*stards earlier than now but at some time in the past,they were a privileged terrorist group,some people thought that killing them was an attack on certain ethnic group or region.
Now both the 'dogs and the baboons are soaked in blood',they now have the guts to occupy some parts of Nigeria and hoist there flags. Its never too late,ones the political will is there,these sub humans will be neutralized in due course.

To think that a ragtag terrorists group being treated with kids gloves by the same DHQ who have been operating a stupid "operation safe corridor" amnesty programme for them are the same treasonable elements who did this grave damage makes it more sadder for the armed forces and this nation. RIP soldiers

36 families turned fatherless and widows. After Mokwa, the rest places in Niger is ungoverned, left to bandits and terrorists.

I like how Tinubu emphasized on creating a new military doctrine for our Armed Forces. This is the only way forward.

Northerners warning babablu over invading Niger.

In interesting that in Nigeria whenever there is rumours of a coup, especially during corrupt administratons, senior military officers usually perish in aircraft crashes.

During Obasanjo's corrupt administration 1999-2007, many senior military officers also perished in airplane crash or crashes.

RIP to our gallant hero, may God console their their family members.

They should recruit more of agbado youths .. Rip to the dead,they for kuku resign,rather than loosing their lives for wetin no really concern them..

May their souls rest in peace

What the military is supposed to do now is an "all put attack" against the bandits.

This is the only thing that can redeem their image.

For them to stick to this figure its more than this.

They were snitched on by their fellows and evil among them, that's just it.
