WAJIROKO TERRORISTS AMBUSH: BRIGADE COMMANDER LEADS TROOPS BACK TO BASE

Troops of 25 Task Force Brigade, on routine patrol to secure communities around Wajiroko in Azir Multe, Damboa LGA of Borno State, came under a sudden and heavy insurgents fire while returning from a successful patrol within the fringes of Sambisa Forest.

The patrol team which was led by the Commander 25 Brigade Brigadier General M Uba and comprised troops of 25 Task Force Brigade and members of Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) courageously fought through the insurgents ambush with superior fire power, forcing them to withdraw in dissaray and to abandone their mission.

During the encounter two brave soldiers and two heroic CJTF members paid the supreme price while on active service to the nation. While commending the troops for their gallantry, the Army high command commiserates with families and associates of the deceased gallants for their heroic sacrifice to the nation.

The Army Headquarters also wishes to debunk the fake narrative going round some media platforms online alleging the abduction of the Brigade Commander. The general public is hereby advised to disregard the fake news regarding the incident while praying for the continuous success of our gallant service men and women.

The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu, Nigerian Army Medal, salutes the uncommon bravery, resilience and sacrifice of the gallant troops who have continued to operate in one of the most dangerous theatres of conflict on behalf of our dear nation. Their unflinching commitment, even in the face of grave danger, remains a powerful reminder of the daily sacrifices being made by our gallant service men and women to keep Nigeria safe.

Ok

Welcome back, Oga Brigadier....

When next you are going into Combat, help us carry with you star boy Lieutenant Yarima...Let him replace our heroes lost who fell fighting alongside you.

Just as he has done to Wike, he needs to also teach terrorists and bandits respect and dignity of the military

Lt Yarima has obviously shown his combat readiness with his recent exploit of excellent gatekeeping of private land in Abuja.

Lolzz

What is happening in this Nigeria?


Better tell us what is happening to Lt Kunle and Lt Okeke as said previously.

Because Kunle has to be clear on who did what. They are in Damboa while Lt Yerima is in Abuja.

So bad. Am sure that was an insider work.

So many terrorist groups these days courtesy of Islam.
One could only imagine how peaceful the world would be without Islam

Wajiroko terrorists group

I believe if we invest more on drone technology we will be able to monitor the movements of all this terrorists.


It has been reported how this terrorists use commercial drones modified for surveillance to scout troop movements from above and rain death without exposing their fighters to Nigerian troops’ ground fire who march along the bush with AK 47 and buffalo truck.

Small small the government that claim boko haram are technically defeated is allowing them to outdo its troops in technology

CHOP MESS ! WIKE BOYYYYYY !

CHOP MESS ! WIKE BOYYYYYY !

I stand in defense of our democracy

I do not like Wike's personality...But that does not mean I should align with ethnic supremacists who believe a retired CNS should countermand an extant Minister directly appointed by the Commander-in-Chief

This your constant crying will not bring back the humiliation your darling Wike received. So quit already

We need help, Nigeria need help to tackle these criminals.

We need help to unravel ( if not already known) those who sponsor these crimes for whatever gain.

He will go to the FCT Secretariat and gun down Wike yes?

Clown

Wike isn't my darling

Check my previous posts

I have never supported Wike on anything except this situation, just like I have been mostly pro-military until now

What a military!

They killed our soldiers and all you could do is to shoot in the air to disperse the terrorists back into the forest not call for back up and wipe them out.

What happened to operation Python dance?

LT Yerima is a Navy Officer and not a Land Army, i stand to be corrected though.

Focus on your primary assignment and don't meddle in civil issues. Patriotic Nigerians will always support the military in their performance of legitimate assignments.

Imagine taking unlawful instructions from a retired officer against the representative of Mr President?

A clear conscience, they say, fears no accusations. If Gen Gambo has all his papers and approval, why not bring it out for the public to see?

You are not aware that Naval officers also form part of ground combat JTF

If not so, what is a naval officer doing gatekeeping land in Abuja?

You were rejoicing in the other thread about the kidnapping of the general somehow believing it validates your stance on this Yerima vs Wike issue.
No go get hypertension for Wike matter o. Wike no regard anybody as human being apart from him family members o.
Yerima gallant for any duty his superiors assign to him.
