Boko Haram Burns UN Facilities In Borno, Attacks Workers by HonNL: 11:24pm On Apr 10, 2021
The Boko Haram fighters, in a fresh wave of attacks, invaded Damasak town in Borno State on Saturday, setting fire on United Nations facilities and forcing humanitarian workers to flee for their lives.

SaharaReporters learnt that the terrorists, aided by their deadlier Islamic State West African Province fighters, set fire to the UN office and to at least three other international charity organisations contiguous to the UN facility.

“The terrorists came into the town in gun trucks. They first embarked on a looting spree. They carted away aid supplies meant for the Internally Displaced Persons before they set fire to the UN hub in the town and three other buildings belonging to other aid organisations,” a source in the town narrated.

A military source confirmed the Saturday attack on Damasak but said the troops were fighting hard to ensure that the terrorists did not overrun the town.

“They planned to attack the military base first, but we repelled the invasion. Pockets of them then went to the UN facility. The Nigerian Air Force aircraft have been called in and they are currently engaging in air interdictions on the terrorists,” he stated.

UN facilities are becoming increasingly threatened in the North-East.

On March 1, ISWAP jihadists overran a UN hub in Dikwa, killing six civilians and forcing aid workers to retreat from the town despite urgent humanitarian needs temporarily.

On March 15, the fighters had attacked Damasak, the headquarters of the Mobbar Local Government Area of Borno.

The United Nations is yet to react to the latest assault on its facility in the state.

According to one Islamic cleric called Gumi. Boko Haram is a blessing to the north, so I'm not surprised.


I almost feel for the military wasting their lives fighting against them but All the same, let them die!


Who cares.

I wish UN is really United to save anyone. Brace yourselves my people next war in Nigerian won’t have any rules of engagement. To my fellow Yoruba people be prepared for the next Guerilla warfare. There is no international community anywhere coming to your assistance except we your brothers and sisters in the diaspora.

Fulani are trying to do to us what the british did to us for years and we must resist them now. They are using boko haram, bandits and islam.

Defend yourselves before we arrive, we can assure you that we are coming to defend you and at the end we will be in total freedom

CIA and covert operations.
People are not seeing the role USA is playing in these games,but hausas think they are fighting to get Sharia but USA is doing business and also destabilizing Nigeria with their terrorists stooge.
They planted isis in the middleeast and openly backed isis against syrian government.
They openly backed terrorists to overthrow gaddafi.

The soldiers must retaliate,they must show these guys how superior they are.

Let them mobilize troops to Benue state and burn down innocent civilians so that the terrorists in far north will know how powerful Nigerian army are.

In another news,our darling daddy is fighting terrorism from the front of UK hospital. If you recall during his campaign premise, he said he will fight from the front, and that is exactly what he is doing.

Yet the IGP will only wanna flex muscle in the war torn East but withdraw his men from peaceful Borno.

Military jets will disappear and won't come near Borno but they are moving around in Akwaibom.

So much for Boko Haram now after soft targets.

Come to think of it are the facilities owned by an international body such as the United Nations not supposed to have military presence and heavily guarded against these insurgents?

Every affair of this nation is lackadaisically conducted. Perhaps, it's because the dullard in Aso Rock has lackadaisically abdicated his responsibilities touring UK.

Nigeria with collective amnesia and the North with their herd mentality, can never think beyond their nose. Thank God its Buhari in power and not a southerner for them to blame anyone.
