18 soldiers killed, six wounded in Boko Haram raid of Nigerian military base

At least 18 Nigerian troops have been killed and six others wounded after Boko Haram insurgents sacked a forward operating base in Borno State, military sources said Wednesday.

Four different brands of armoured personnel carriers and other heavy military hardware were carted away when the insurgents overran the base in Gajiram, Nganzai Local Government Area. The Nigerian Army has not issued a statement about the attack, and a spokesperson did not return calls for comments Wednesday afternoon.

May Allah protect and grant victory to our soldiers.amen

Incidents of soldiers losing their lives & several other sad tales that're today's realities, are what I expect GarShehu, FemAdesina, AsoRock, etc, to be taking serious, and we know that it is MBuhari that owes us an answer, not Obj for his absence

Our house is on fire, but woe betide you to raise an alarm. Let the owambe continue. It shall consume us all.

'Boko Haram has been technically defeated'- buhari 'Security today is better than it was under GEJ'- buharists.. A bunch of irredemably masochistic, intellectually bankrupt, perpetually sadistic, mentally degraded, and irresponsibly fanatical set of nincompoops

The idea of conscripting ex BH members into the military will create moles in the system, thereby frustrating the efforts of the soldiers.... Ethnic and religious bias is the reason why insurgency will continue to thrive....

So, how many insurgents paid the supreme price for daring to engage our brave troops? We see our losses right off your headline, but must read the story or go to DefenceInfoNG for the carnage our braves wreaked on their foes. HOW IS IT DOING YOU SEF 😡? Patriotism

Crime has Reduced in Nigeria las las🚶‍♀️

The Fight is real!!! I wish Foreign experts can assist our great Nation Nigeria . what a shame to the present Tyrant Administration

oluwaloninyo Buhari should just fire the military chiefs, we need new ideas but our president is stuck in his own way

HQNigerianArmy what's happening?

No Why LIEING? NG 'I own my generation one thing which is TO BE FAITHFUL it produces trust & purity, thanks' Because 'some NIGERIA Leaders & Another Land leaders the funders,key holders & blood suckers BORDERLINE D NATION & silence WEAK NIGERIANS' This government is a wrong key

May the souls of the departed find rest. May those who profit from this situation be worthy of the quickest rewards sooner than later. I mourn for you.

They will soon deny it

Naah boko haram has been technically defeated by Bokohari ..... the blood of those killed will soon hunt after those who impose this evil called Buhari on Nigeria. ...Nonsense!

Buhari can't defeat Bandits, herdsmen and Boko Haram yet he parades himself as a retired General and a CinC.

Upside down opinion: NA supplies arms to Army bases, consciously weaken the bases, BH attacks bases and takes the arms, the top officials ask for more funding as BH are more armed. Do it again...vicious cycle.

I'm not sure is Nigeria 🇳🇬 army base. How can that be when we have the best army chief and the best weapons even better than that of us and Russia 🇷🇺, when our navy has 30 subs on land and the air for has 70 international ballistic missile. Next level

Soldiers! Do they just surrender to be slaughtered?
