AS the battle to rout out Boko Haram terrorists from communities seized in Adamawa State continues, military source have disclosed that some soldiers and officers are inventing pranks to avoid deployment to the battlefield.

At the weekend, seven soldiers allegedly opened fire on different parts of their bodies and later claimed that Boko Haram terrorists shot them, but when medical examination was carried out on them, it was discovered that the shots were self-inflicted.

The army high command has also discovered that information about its strategies and operational road map in the North East were being passed on to Boko Haram terrorists by orderlies and close aides of commanders on the field.

It was gathered that some of the perpetrators of the crime had been arrested, while a board of inquiry had been set up to carry out further investigation, after which a court martial to try them would be set up.

The source revealed that many of the soldiers had devised means, so as not to be set for battlefield, while others faked strange ailments.

It was reliably gathered that the alleged attack on seven soldiers at the weekend were carefully masterminded by the troops, so as to look as if the Boko Haram, terrorists actually attacked them.

The source disclosed that when the soldiers were brought to the hospital in Adamawa, the injuries were fresh, while the bullets just pierced through the flesh to the other side, with no bone affected.

Nigerian Tribune also gathered that the troops had started pushing out the insurgents from the zone, with the arrival of the new equipment.

braine:
Cowards. These are the soldiers making our Army look weak.

eckersley:
I see it differently.
The soldiers are not motivated [financially, working conditions] enough
to die for their countries.
This attitude until now has never been heard of in the army.

How many foot soldier[dead or living] were honoured during the
national awards by President Jona?
Or how many get recognized if injured in battle?

But OBJ's son that was reportedly injured made headline worldwide.
I strongly he was not injured in the first place. Just a publicity stunt.

And how do u think the soldiers saw that?
They would say:
Kai, we dey die since and nobody put our name for tv.
Now them don arrange Obj pikin for tv make e for be like say
na them dey fight the battle.

They are on the battlefield, their wages are not sent to their
families as they desire,
commanders leak info to Boko Haram and these foot soldiers
are still sent into the field AKA sacrificed.

NO MONEY, INCREASING DISCONTENTMENT WITH SENIOR OFFICIALS [ evident by d mutinies],
WIDOWS AND CHILDREN OF THE SLAIN NEGLECTED
my people what do u think these soldiers are?
ROBOTS, I guess
