Boko Haram/Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) terrorists have killed a yet-to-be confirmed number of Nigerian soldiers, with many still missing following an attack on a Forward Operating Base in the Damboa Local Government Area of Borno State.

According to security sources, the incident occurred on Saturday, January 4, 2025.

The sources added that the terrorists razed many buildings and military operational vehicles during the attack that lasted over two hours.

“25 Taskforce Bde was attacked during the weekend with so many casualties, so far we have recovered over seven bodies,” a source told SaharaReporters on Monday.

“The terror group invaded the camp FOB Sabon Gari around 4am on Saturday, using various weapons.”

Since the death of JAS leader, Abubakar Shekau, ISWAP has been consolidating its grip in locations around Lake Chad.

The sect’s membership has swollen with the defection of hundreds of Boko Haram fighters.

The Nigerian Army says it is committed to wiping out the terrorism from the country.

The terror group has killed many people and displaced millions of individuals mainly in Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe states.

This is sad, I wonder how these terrorists continue to launch such successful attacks against our soldiers, it seems intelligence gathering is zero because our soldiers are supposed to have advance knowledge and be prepared


I think the federal government should stop the rehabilitation and amnesty program for repentant terrorists, they should be killed immediately


Rip to the dead and speedy recovery to the injured

You won't see Northern Elders and influencers to condemn this because most of the soldiers being killed in the North are Southerners.

This might be a fake news by the terrorist group, they love spreading propaganda. I will wait for the military to release a statement.

From the pix, one can easily notice that the soldiers were relax and weren't expecting attack from these beasts. Because, they've off their boots obviously relaxing. They should have be more vigilant.

Drones, Drones, Drones...

The government needs to invest massively in Drone technology to combat major attacks like these, as well as smuggling and kidnappings...

The forces tearing Nigeria apart seem far stronger and more relentless than those holding it together.

Sometimes you have to question the incompetence? Wtf? For over two hours there was no air✈️️ reinforcements?

High level negligence.
Rip to the soldiers.

As expected. Recently, foolish nigerian army and media has been reporting massive bombardment on thwm. What do you expect? These fools in army knows how Boko Haram operates. They don't like it when the world views them as weak.

Normally after successful attack, those Boko Haram Islamic terrorists used to take the soldiers guns,boots and sometimes even their uniforms.

I believe the soldiers were killed standing on their feet.


Those cowards only know how to Intimidate and kill civilians,if this happens in south East Nigeria government will send all Nigeria soldiers to kill innocent people around the area and burn down the community.

Don’t worry, they’ll repent tomorrow and be reintegrated into the society. The army is its own problems.

Terrible! Leave militarization the SE and focus on the North please. Stop majoring on the minor and minority on the major.
Re: Boko Haram Attacks Army Base In Borno, Kills Soldiers, Burns Vehicles (Photos) by Forumites: 3:08pm On Jan 06, 2025
DSS secured the SE during Xmas and need to secure at least only Bornu… like I said just like the Israelis, the government and their oppressors are making some part of the country strong and won’t be able to contain them sooner or later just like Bornu is now the hot bed of terrorism.

Recently, someone was caught delivering food stuff to boko haram but instead tracing it, they had to make it public. When we ready we go arrange this country.

Of course I will always,whether it comes from Boko, Iswap or APC agents in East.




I stopped loving and supporting your Nigeria soldiers after their killing of hundreds of innocent Igbos youths for protesting peacefully between 2015 and 2017 (Which i know you supported them)



Before then I used to be a lover of your Nigeria soldiers, even wished to be one growing up as a kid then.



For now I will never support them even if they're are at war with another country.

Well I support them when they do their legit job for the country and condemn them when ever they did something unconstitutional.
Nigeria will be worst without them..Groups like bokoharam,esn/ugm would have overrun the country without them.
