The troops had recently arrived from Lagos, the commercial capital.






“The base had 734 troops.
Currently the commander of the base and 63 soldiers have made it to Geidam (60 kilometres away) while the remaining 670 are being expected,” he said.

Re: Boko Haram Overruns Nigeria Military Base In Second Attack In Days by Nobody: 9:30pm On Jul 15, 2018
I implore you all to ask yourselves...how is it that each time Boko Haram is dealt with, there is a few months hiatus, then they bounce back, often in such spectacular fashion worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster movie. We will be doing ourselves a major disservice by pretending the Nigerian Army hasn't made major gains and stride, considering it practically had to be re restructured. You all sit in your rooms spewing out crap in a predictive manner, lambasting the men and women in the front.

Ask yourselves..how is it Boko Haram bounces back each time? They no longer even have a major stronghold. Where re the weapons coming from? Hiw do they get real time intelligence on the movement of Nigerian troops? There are six drone bases in the region....could it be there are external players whi stand to gain from a Nigeria in continuous chaos? There is practically a civil war brewing in Cameroon now, where a murderous dictators is killing women and children, yet mysteriously the world is silent.

What has the world focused on for the last two months? Its not the human rights violations and killings in Cameroon. Nope.....its Nigeria. Nigerian soldiers rapeing thousands Boko Haram captives, which is borderline insane. Now suddenly Boko Haram is BACK. And we Nigerians, as usual in a predictive manner go gun blazing with this sick self hating stupidity. You arm chair generals spewing crap think war is a video game. You are the critical elements the powers that be need to push their agenda of a Nigeria ungovernable. You dont think. Where are the weapons coming from? How come the rate of terrorism increases anywhere the United States behin building drone bases. You think these Boko Haram guys are clairvoyant? They just know where to attack at the rjght time with the right number of men?

Let me sound like a prophet of doom right now but believe you me bokoharam has come to stay and will be here till Jesus come. Nigeria will continue to fight terrorism to the extent that would be needing foreign intervention.
Re: Boko Haram Overruns Nigeria Military Base In Second Attack In Days by Nobody: 9:37pm On Jul 15, 2018
We have special forces that fight like regular infantry. Nothing different except the uniforms. Thats why i think the navy SBS should be drafted in.

Buhary has failed. Period!

Firefire, he failed, i agree.
Do nigerians understand this man fail, it doesnt seem so. Afterall, lai Mohammed just concluded some few minutes ago that the test of ekiti election shows nigerians are pleased with the man.

For me, if BH like, they can take over the entire military, its ok. Nigeria isnt worth it

A base that haboured over 700 soldiers is not a joke..how then there is no single intel reports till the boko haram came in large numbers to overran the mini barracks..'kokoro ti je fo idi efo lowa'

Nigerian military need to change their security architecture.They must know intel gathering and use of drones to fight the Boko haram is a must.

Don't mind this clueless nation. Simple tactics , known even by juvenile civilians is what a nation's military cannot deploy even after multiple overrun of supposed military bases.

I only pity soldiers in the northeast from southern origin, as usual northern leaders and commoners would be silent. There was heavy massacre in sokoto for two days straight no northern leader made any statement. As a matter of fact they were all concerned with ekiti elections

None of your pastors and political party CAN, or your busybodi activists said a word too.

But if the cannibals of plateau look for trouble and got their asses served, you'd all be up in arms.

Obviously he "tactically retreated" before things get messy, This issue of Nigerian army is just baffling. how can I have over 700troops dug in ready for defence battle & still end up losing to the attacker, despite that, the commander could not even make an organised retreat sacrificing over 600 troops, This is sheer incompetence!!!! Haba. don't they have artillery or machine Gunners, as the defending forces they should be able to hold atleast over 1k enemies. incompetent commander kawai!!!!

And to the HQ, even reinforcement from Maiduguri will reach that place & beside where are the attack helicopters, alpha jets, metchew


I strongly advise Nigerians Army should change criteria for recruiting cadets and officers, these days all we have are cowards who do nothing but run away from bokoharam while leaving innocents privates to get killed or wounded.

Useless!!!

i Hope the soldiers return safely

Stories emanating from nigeria is so heartbreaking sad

You're not the only one that sees this. It's the only thing that makes long term sense but unfortunately too many prefer to exploit the situations for political point-scoring. Perhaps this type of Nigerians are complacent in that deep down they probably believe Nigerian army is too powerful. They are however the type that call helicopter jet-fighters. Macaron even came and kissed the present like Judas.

The soldiers go through a lot.

Take that from me, whose relations served in, and a few are still serving in the army.

Their superior at the defence hq are wicked, under equipping them, slashing their allowances etc
