ISWAP Suicide Bomber Kills Soldiers In Yobe by otunbaloja(op): 1:22pm On Feb 23, 2021
Many Nigerian soldiers were on Monday killed when a Boko Haram terrorist rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into them during a clash in Yobe State, a military source told SaharaReporters.

The bomber, believed to be a member of the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) faction of the group, targeted the military convoy in Goniri, a border community between Yobe and Borno states.

SaharaReporters gathered that the insurgents also engaged the Nigerian troops in a shootout.

“There was an SVBIED (Suicide Vehicle Borne Improvised Explosive Device) attack at Goniri yesterday, so many soldiers were killed and injured. The number of casualties is currently unknown,” a military source said.

On Sunday, the group killed five Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Borno State.

SaharaReporters gathered that the IDPs were attacked inside a forest outside Damboa town while they were searching for firewood.

ISWAP, which split from the mainstream Boko Haram in 2016, has become a dominant group, focusing on military targets and high-profile attacks, including against aid workers.

The Nigerian Army has repeatedly claimed that the insurgency had been largely defeated and frequently underplays any losses.

The terror group has caused over 40,000 deaths and displaced millions of individuals mainly in Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe states.

Good news has gone extinct in nigeria...na bad bad news every day.

It's only a president from another region that will fight the insurgency in the north without sentiment. But this little knowledge will sound alien to northerners and Buhari supporters

.


“If insurgency lasts for more
than 24 hours, the government has a hand in
it”- Gen. Abacha .

Buhari led his soldiers in an offensive attack against the Maitatsine terrorists in the 90s but decades later, same man has turned to granting Terrorists and Killers amnesty and Scholarship. One of his loyal servants even said terrorists can become president.

Going by Abacha's statement, one can easily agree that Buhari is sympathetic to ISWAP course. And if the sympathizers and the actors are terrorists, then one would not be wrong by saying Buhari is a terrorist.

RIP to the Soldiers.

This ISWAP are not terrorists

They are just foreigners going about their normal business and are hated by all Nigerians

They are just defending themselves

For your information, anything that happens in the North should remain in the North

Cursed be anyone who gets paid to rig elections in this country, force evil leadership on us and is getting paid to defend evil in the media.

May they use all the money they are being paid to treat incurable disease that doctors cannot diagnose.

May the money they are being paid be used to pay ransom to release their kidnapped relations, spouses, children and parents.

As for those who are killing and kidnapping people in the country, may they lost their lives through fire accident and may terrible disease and afflictions locate them to the point that they will not remember to think about killing anyone else but will only think about how to recover their health.

May this be their portion and that of their accomplices.

May Nigeria and it's citizens be free from every evil and triumph gloriously this year and beyond.

This is written and so shall it be....Amen.

rather ironic how these rag tag guys are always on the offensive. l cant imagine how the soldiers have become pawns in the hands of the union between politicians and terrorists, just for their personal gains
