No fewer than 15 persons are feared dead and 55 others sustained injuries in a Sunday night attack by Boko Haram insurgents at Bale community in the outskirts of Maiduguri.

PoliticsNGR learned that echoes from sporadic gunshots and multiple explosions which lasted for hours on Sunday evening, were heard from the outskirts of the city.

Competent security sources told our correspondent that a number of insurgents attacked Bale-Shuwa and Bale-Kura communities near Maiduguri in an attempt to infiltrate the town at about 8: 00 p. m.

The source disclosed that the insurgents parked their vehicles few meters away from a security check point and sneaked into the community.

The source added that the security operatives engaged in fierce gun battle with the insurgents who detonated Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and shot sporadically.

“Dozens of people including women and children were wounded from the explosion and gun shots.

“Due to darkness dead bodies were not evacuated immediately because there were suicide bombers among the attackers,” the added.

However, the Commander of the Theatre Command of Operation Lafiya Dole, Maj-Gen. Rogers Nicholas, denied any death on the side of his soldiers or civilians in the attack.

Reacting to an inquiry in a text message he said, however, that some of the Boko Haram insurgents were killed.

“That’s not correct. There was an attack which was repelled and some Boko Haram insurgents were killed by gallant soldiers.

“However, Boko Haram came with suicide bombers who denoted their vests while running from the troops fire in a nearby community and that led to 14 civilians being injured from the blasts.”

Nigeria should facilitate her security. The FG needs to act fast on this, you can't be ruling comfortably while your people keeps dying like mosquitoes without any credible security measures or equipments being provided. Please the killing is too much, they are human beings for crying out loud. And as for people still still living in those danger areas knowing how dangerous it is, I don't know what to say or tell them sha.

Those people are zombies
Imagine living in a war zone
Why can't they go to aso rock gate and set up an IDP camp... Thousands of them

Buhari borrowed one billion dollar to fight Boko Haram
He can't seem to accomplish that

All the monies meant for the IDPs given to them by European Unions and charities....
They can't account for it

So why won't the killings persist

Again?

But Buhari said they are technically defeated, why are they still technically carrying out bombing.

Technically defeated

And someone would tell me the military is working?

Boko Haram technically defeated.... those are Holy warriors

If they can negotiate the release of dapchi girls, why cant they negotiate peace and negotiate stopping these killings?

we have defeated boko haram....... APC faithfuls where una dey?

calm down everyone no cause for control everything is under alarm.

Where is that guy who insulted danjuma for advising people to defend themselves?

I hope you see how people are killed like flies?

If its not a northern elites wedding





Its not buhari business

The same boko haram that cannot carry out any organized attack according to APC government?? Lives just wasting away on daily basis in Nigeria

The army swiftly moved to the south east to kill innocent and unarmed persons, Nigerians applauded them.
They said unarmed protesters are terrorists while armed terrorists are criminals. They should deal with the criminals technically.
I'm done sympathizing with Boko victims. They should enjoy the monster they birthed.

Yet, Buhari will deceive himself that he has defeated Boko Haram, and some useful idiots on this forum will still defend his emptiness even with the truth staring them in the eyes. I wonder how the likes of maasoap, buhariguy, madridguy, yarimo, dvee2 and yazach manage to sleep at night, knowing that they are intentionally defending a lie and error. Shameless people

MY fellow Nairalanders if you think BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL please LIKE the picture below.

As long as Boko Haram is unleashing their terror only in the north, e no concern me. Let them kill them all sef for all i care. at least, the number of Sai babarians will reduce for the upcoming 2019 elections

technically defeated

Kai!!! But these guys have been technically defeated na!

Christ, Naija leaders just perplex me!!! How can someone sit idly while hundreds continue to get slaughtered!??!?! Not even the most corrupt Western politician would even stand for this. Do these people not realize that insecurity hurts investment into our country Naija, which way Na?!?!?! Which way?!?!?!

these are people Buhari want to give amnesty... what a shithole of a country

yet NA can't apprehend this guys.but be it cattle rustler they will be like"I am spider man"
