Speak to them in the language they understand

Nice job from the soldiers. If only you can focus on the terrorists up north and west and leave the peaceful east alone

They should stop publishing these gory pictures.
I know some terrorist sympathizers would be shouting fake news without pictures
but they don't really care about pictures as they wouldn't believe either way.

Una never see anything.

Boko Haram is here to stay with you Northerners.

Are these boko haram fighters reincarnating? Nigeria army always boast of defeating them; but their numbers don't reduce at all.

Shey bullets no spoil their pen!s sha, make e no be say dem go dey use their fingers disvirgin there girls for their paradise

They keep on training more men now.

We need pictures of dead ISWAP fighters also, they killed and dislodged Boko Haram from Sambisa forest and are therefore a more potent threat to Nigeria than the boko boys right now. Good one to the NA, but the fight should also be taken to ISWAP also

This is how ipob terrorists will be treated.

Nice not graphic enough, why boko haram kill innocent people is what I don't understand.
Can someone remind me what there are fighting for?

This topic should have been 'troops neutralize animals'. May they never find peace

there is some lil truth in this news, I believed it.

Sirjamo:

Only in Nigeria will a group that is agitating for their separate country be tagged as a terrorist group. Why hasn't any other country except this shithole recognize IPOB as a terrorist group?

Terrosist don turn full time job. Seems dey keep increasing

Great job by the troops � more wins.

God should intervene for this country further existence!!!

God bless Nigerian army and protect them to win the war

Good riddance to bad rubbish..
