Bako, described by the governor as a fallen warrior, was the Commander of 25 Task Force Brigade of Operation Lafiya Dole in charge of Damboa and the surrounding axis in southern Borno.Zulum added, “Indeed, it is a very sad moment, this is not a loss to the family of the late Col. Dahiru Chiroma Bako alone, not to the Nigerian Military, it is a loss to Borno and indeed Nigeria.
“Col. Bako was a gallant and dogged military officer, under whose watch Damboa was never defeated. He is humble and committed to discharging his duties, he is part of the success recorded in degrading Boko Haram insurgency in Borno State. “I am reliably informed that Col. Bako did not have a house of his own. We cannot ignore the family he left behind. We share their grief and nothing can equal his life. Nevertheless, I am pleased to announce that Borno State Government will build a befitting house for the family of late Col. Bako.
“I was also told that the Nigerian Army under the distinguished leadership of Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai has offered a scholarship to his children, we will also support the family to complement the efforts of the military. “For the welfare of his family, Borno State Government will release the sum of N20 million as support for them. A cheque to the effect will be ready later today or tomorrow morning.”

I hail him for that wonderful act.
Governor that knows the right thing and regards heroes
It's kind gesture from the Governor if that is from his private pocket as caring ❤️. Kudos to him. But if it's from govt purse, then kindly extend same to other fallen Heros that paid the supreme price to bring peace against the Terrorist Boko Haram. They all deserve d support.
I've been watching this Zulum of a man. He's a refined Mallam. A gentle professor. Education is all over him. Good job!
Next president
Nice one, but don't forget the others that died along with him
Masha Allah.. my future president
We hope is not Audio promise
There are so many low ranking soldiers that got killed for years, their wives and family thrown out of the barracks and the their benefits not paid. Is there something we're missing about this guy's death that's different?
Best Governor in Nigeria, a man for the people.. I love ProfZulum you are a man whose heart is touched by the divine..
the honor and reward he didn't receive when he was alive... medicine after death... and the young soldiers dying everyday war front life doesn't matter at all...
Well done to super Governor.

Honestly Nigeria is truly a shit hole country... So they have been waiting for this man to die so they donate money and house to his family. What a wicked world.
