The Nigerian Army has identified two soldiers who recorded and released video of some soldiers fighting Boko Haram terrorists cursing the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai.

This was contained in a statement issued by the spokesman of the Defence Headquarters, Major General John Eneche.
The statement reads: “The Troops of Combat Team 1, Operation KANTANA JIMLAN on long range admin patrol along Buni Yadi-Buni Gari axis encountered multiple Improvised Explosive Devices and Boko Haram Terrorists’ ambush, eight kilometres ahead of Buni-Gari in Gujba Local Government Area of Yobe State on the 18 of May 2020.

“Two soldiers paid the supreme price and three other soldiers sustained injuries as a result of the IED explosion.

“Additionally, a recovery truck, one troops carrying vehicle and a water tanker that ran into the IED were destroyed by fire. Three terrorists were neutralized while unconfirmed number escaped with various degrees of injury.

“However, due to mental snap/distress occasioned by fog of war, two of the soldiers who escaped the IED and terrorists’ ambush recorded the incident with uncomplimentary remarks, about the Nigerian Army and her leadership, which was released on the social media. Although this kind of outburst is expected in war, the soldiers involved have been identified and would undergo observation and counseling.

“The Armed Forces of Nigeria will remain unwavering in its quest to end the terrorism and will do everything possible to ensure there is no repeat of this kind of traumatic incident/outburst.

“The Military High Command commends troops of Operation LAFIYA DOLE for their unwavering determination, hard work and resilience.”

Dismiss for saying the truth...

You must be a heartless fellow, for saying that...

In that case, then that is going to be the last time we hear from those guys...

This Army spoke person job go hard for this Benue man in the coming days ooo.

What government and its agencies should realised is that the era of hoarding information is over, SM is helping citizens to push for accountability and transparency.
The era where FRCN and NTA hold monopoly is far gone, they don't need to wait for citizens to embarrass them before reacting.
