Residents of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital has faulted the claim by Operation Lafiya Dole that only 26 people were killed in last Sunday attack in Maiduguri by the dreaded Islamic sect, Boko Haram.

The residents said they had gone to the state specialists hospital where they saw the corpses and the injured, adding that there was the need to always keep the people abreast as regards the insurgency situation in the northeast.

Mallam Kallamu Inusa, who lost a brother during the attack on Sunday told DAILY POST that he was shocked by the claims made by the Nigerian military on the number of the victims.

According to him, “it is disheartening that people are not being told the truth about the situation; why can’t they tell us the truth? Hiding the position of things, particularly this insurgency is not the right thing to do.”

Inusa added, “in our area Polo, about six houses were burnt down by the attackers. They want us to believe them? They should resort to telling us the truth. I am not talking because I lost a brother; go round and ask people in this area, they would tell you that the figure is far beyond what the military is portraying.”

Another resident Mr. Amos Peter told DAILY POST that he was at the state specialist hospital where he counted more than 50 corpses while looking for his daughter.

“I am lucky and thank God; she was not killed. Right now, she is receiving treatment at the University of Maiduguri Teaching hospital. I personally counted over 50 people killed as a result of the attack. I am surprised that the military is saying that only 26 people were killed,” he said.

•No one should be suprised.
Usual modus of information management on the part of the millitary.

That's why lia mohammed wants the media to shut up,why they want to pass a bill to gag the media so ppl wunt know what's up
Chanjiii!!!!

Minister of Lie and Propaganda,sorry Information,doing Wat he knows how to do Best

This APC government is slowly gagging the media because they know it's a very deadly weapon.

Buhari spent six months sourcing for men of '' integrity '' to make minister, only for him to bring the likes of Amaechi ,.Liar who are now telling the media houses not to publish Boko haram horror being unleash on ''saft target ''

No wonder they kept silent on the missing 105 soldiers. Imagine a bomb detonated in a mosque where hundreds if not thousands of people worship. Do you know how many causalities will be involved?

Social media agents of change .. Remember this.. What goes around comes back around.

I cant believe this, its better they say the truth and let the truth set em free. why are they trying to bury the media through which they got more recognition and votes. I don't see them coming back 2019. We all have right to know whats going on in this country. lalasticlala fp tinz

So what are they hiding? Nonsense!

I just dye look mtchwwww

Dis

Buhari should keep lying.. Change indeed

A friend of mine who lived in Yobe State and ran away with his family with only the clothes on their backs told me a few hours ago that whenever the military give a figure, u should multiply it by 3 at least. They are such a disgrace. They should be trying to actually defeat Boko haram instead of defeating them in the media.

When Lie M. is the one informing the public??

When you're in the worst administration ever in the whole world, how do you expect to be told the truth?

And Liar Mohammed and his team want to slap a child and yet prevent him from crying. Trying to shove lies into the throat of the Con Media men by being economical with the truth

I know that God will intervene
