Army Reacts To Attack On Zulum Convoy by HappyNigerian(op): 3:45pm On Jul 30, 2020
PRESS RELEASE

RE: REPORT OF ATTACK ON THE CONVOY OF BORNO STATE GOVERNOR

1. The convoy of the Executive Governor of Borno State, Professor Babagana Gana Zulum came under Boko Haram Terrorists fire while visiting Baga Town on the 29th of July 2020. The Executive Governor had earlier paid a visit to the Commander, 19 Brigade at the Nigerian Army Super Camp Baga where he was fully briefed about the prevailing security situation in the general area. The unfortunate incident occurred shortly after the Governor and his entourage departed the Super Campaign to visit other parts of Baga town. The incident forced the Governor to abort his planned movement to Baga.

2. Although, details of the unfortunate incident is sketchy and under investigation, efforts are ongoing to comb the area where the incident occurred with a view to track down and deal decisively with the attackers. An investigation is also in progress to identify the circumstances that led to the attack.

3. Regretably, this is an isolated and most unfortunate incident that occurred in a territory where normalcy has since been restored with socio-economic activities picking up. The Nigerian Army wants to reassure the general public that this will be interrogated with a view to forestalling future re-occurance.

4. Additionally, Nigerian Army wishes to inform the general public that it will continue to discharge its responsibilities professionally with respect for the fundamental human rights of all Nigerians and in compliance with the extant rules of engagement. The good people of Baga town and indeed the entire Borno State are enjoined to continue to provide credible information that will assist the security agencies to successfully combat terrorism as well as apprehend and flush out the perpetrators of the attack.

Those Generals want to eliminate Zulum because he always speak against their lackadaisical attitude toward insurgents.

They gave BH Intel about his movement and where to ambush him.

Boko Haram are being pampered by our Government.

Failed Generals are in charge.

Tueee!

Indeed there was a country where terrorist are being given presidential pardon and being taken care of.Buhari and integrity are two parallel line that can never meet.The terrorists they are pampering today we grow to chase them out when they are no more in government.
