Several Residents Killed As Airstrike Targeting Lakurawa Hits Sokoto Communities by Dapromzy333(op): 6:56pm On Dec 25, 2024

A fighter jet targeting terrorists in Lakurawa mistakenly bombed two peaceful communities in Silame Local Government Area of Sokoto State on Wednesday morning, leaving many feared dead and several others injured, News360 Nigeria reports.

The affected villages, Gidan Sama and Rumtuwa, were hit around 7 am, according to local accounts.

The chairman of Silame LGA, Alhaji Abubakar Muhammad Daftarana, described the incident as devastating, stating that the victims were innocent residents.

“The villagers were sitting peacefully when the bombs started dropping on the communities. They were innocent and peace-loving people who had no any criminal record.

It is early for me to confirm the number of people either killed or injured because we are still assessing the development,” Daftarana said.

Terrorists who are protecting their fellow terrorists but killing Christians up North.

Quota system pilot killing civilians instead of bandits.
Since we don't want such sensitive jobs to be on merits, killing of this nature will continue to happen

If the residents are not the sympathizers and aiders they would not be striked.

It's will be difficult to fight terrorism without affecting the civilians covering them

This is not just right,it is becoming one too many,lives cannot be continuously wasted on these flimsy excuses.I understand the fact that the Airforce plays a very important role in the war against terrorism but these mistakes are becoming unacceptable,i just pray this news is fake.
Please if our Airforce lacks the competency for now then let's bring in mercenaries to do the Job.The war on terror must be won but not on the blood of the innocent. RIP to the dead!

I don't blame these Nigerian airforce guys. I blame those who sold those aircrafts to them.
This is just like giving a monkey a full loaded A.K.47

How many times will this repeat itself?

And everyone up there in asorock just dey ok. Nothing dey happen.

We know the antics of these Terrorists.
They they hide and use civilians as human shield.
If military intelligence shows Terrorists are living alongside civilians in a camp or community, is the military going to go and be asking who is a civilian and who is a terrorist?
Order has been given for Military attack, go and get the job done and neutralize the terrorists.
Sorry and sad, there will always be collateral damage in any military attack.

Best not believe whatever you read in the news especially when it's about military operations against bandits and terrorists in the North.

The Northerners have always been sympathetic to the terrorists in those bushes.

They are considered Muslim brothers in arms.

I can assure you that, the way they are wailing, It was a successful operation. But as usual, these mfs will always want to protect their terrorists brothers. Let's wait for a rejoinder from the military.

I even wonder the countries that are selling those fighter jets to them.
I know it must be anyhow countries like India, China, Russia, etc, where human rights and lives don't matter much.

The ediots should be banned from acquiring even ordinary catapult because nothing is safe in their hands

Same way when Boko hatam started, it was alleged that the security agents were neutralising innocent people until it became a multi headed Hydra. Thorough investigation should be done to ascertain the innocence of the people killed as well as the precision of the coordinates and air strike.

Re: Several Residents Killed As Airstrike Targeting Lakurawa Hits Sokoto Communities by amazingspiderma: 7:41am On Dec 26, 2024

In the East all targets are legit.

Are the cohabitating with the group?

Or was the pilot in a hurry to discharge his payload.
