The Nigerian Army on Sunday confirmed its top military commander Lt. Col. T.E. Alari was killed when ISWAP terrorists launched a desperate Vehicle-Borne Improvised Explosive Device (VBIED) attack on troops at Gardiri Base in Damboa Local Government Area.

Alari until his death on January 24 was Commanding Officer of the 149 Battalion.

Though the VBIED was intercepted and destroyed by the troops, the shrapnel from the explosion tragically took the lives of those closest to the blast, including Alari, who, as always, was at the front

The attack killed at least 8 people and injured 20 others, with 2 in critical condition.

Despite the attack, the troops neutralized more than 60 terrorists and recovered 14 AK-47 rifles, six RPG tubes, 18 motorcycles, and 24 AK-47 magazines during the one-week-long operation.

Useless country sending citizens to their death always at the end of the day the pay is thrash and there's no job satisfaction even in death they won't remember you except you've attained a high rank like this one here

This is just one out of the over 20 soldiers murdered ut he's the only one they remember to call his name in the media . . .the rest na rats without family or relatives to remember them by?

Useless country useless citizens keep joining soja, una eye go clear

ogaemma:
Why will the Army keep lieing till they cannot lie again?
For days they keep denying this bloody attack and lost of our soldier's.
They threw the internet off the balance, that people do not know which of the story to believe again.
Whereas the families of the affected officer's have already cried out and these clueless NIGERIA Army kept denying the attack.
They should apologize to NIGERIANS.
Rest in Peace to the Officer's.
