Yes. The Nigerian Military accepts total responsibility. It wasn't intentional. Thre was an intel of approaching BHT so the military decided to send in ground troops with Air cover. This is surely a bad news.

RIP to the dead.

US airstrikes have killed hundreds on civilians too so we should stop the comparison and support the Nigerian military. Killing Innocent civilians can't be intentional.
It is rather sad that most Nigerians are often quick to promote evil and mediocrity by referring to what happened elsewhere. Granted it was not intentional. But how do we justify the killing of over fifty innocent Nigerians in IDP camps on Nigeria soil by Nigeria Air force?

Though I am not justifying the killing of civilians by US air strikes, but it is a known fact that US airstrikes did not kill Americans on American soil!

Those people you are quoting are demons in flesh.

Even if the military raze an entire state, as long as it is under Buhari, they'd find a way to defend it. If need be, bring up Hiroshima and Nagasaki sef. Anything to justify the wanton killing.

I regret being a Nigerian. How can someone call the bombing of an IDP an accident.

We are talking about a camp with hundreds of tents in the midst of a completely dry, sandy topography.

It only qualifies as an accident if BH members were in the camp and were using civilians as human shields. Every of those civilians killed in the Middle East by Western forces were civilians used as human shields by hostile elements. It's no secrets that when cornered, insurgents may run into highly populated buildings, hospitals, or schools to avoid air strikes.

But this is not the case here.

We did not use a drone for crying out loud. This was done by an alpha jet. And it wasn't just one bomb, it was multiple bombs.

One bastard received wrong coordinates and did not survey the area before dropping the bombs. Because there is no excuse for not noticing that this was an IDP camp. It is impossible for the murderer to mistakenly bomb an IDP camp. These camps are very conspicuous from the air.

I'm not surprised. More death is coming. And as I wrote in a post on my alternate account, RIP in advance to those who're yet to die. Human life is worth sh*t in Nigeria.

This is a national tragedy. I expect the government to declare some days of national mourning. Could it be an avoidable failure of due diligence and intelligence gathering on part of the military? Is it that the Nigeria Army did not have adequate information on the locations of IDP camps in Nigeria? This incident should be properly investigated to forestall future occurrence of such errors.

I am also worried how we play politics with disasters and the actual number of casualty in Nigeria. Since the incident occurred, the media has been turning out conflicting figures.

Nevertheless, our gallant soldiers should not let this incidence discourage them from pursuing the war against terrorism to a logical conclusion.
.
They will not declare anything.
Members of their families are not among the casualties.

Boko Hsram kidnapped more 277 school girls, they were still dining and wining.
Victims of Boko Haram are suffering and dying in IDPs' camps and they are celebrating their extravagant weddings and taking selfies to share on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
They are not humans.
They are demons in human disguise.

The military personnel responsible needs to be exposed and sanctioned accordingly.

But you are amongst the staunch supporters of "these people", isn't it so? Reading between the lines of your comment, I can see it is Buhari you are referring to, so why not defend him as usual.

@Post
This incidence makes one question the VALUE of human life in Nigeria. Barbaric human beings, these foolish leaders we have the unfortunate case of living with.

What a shameless comparison. People like you don't see the positive things to emulate from the West, it is errors and disasters you deem fit to put at par with Nigeria.

For a second put yourself in the shoes of those who died and ask yourself afterwards if you will still type that nonsense up there.

Honestly, You are not serious. So you use this to justify The mistake that took place. Sincerely again You have no soul at all. Justifying a mistake from a world most corrupt country. Sense is really far from you. So those terrorists too was a mistake. If a well known body NAF can drop bomb.. And later come on Air that it was mistake. Then your stupidity has no boundaries.

This is so sad and disheartening. Words can never express the grief the victims' families are going through now. My sincere prayer is that may the Almighty comfort the bereaved and also those that were injured, some will carry serious injuries for the rest of their lives. And honestly I hope this recklessness by the Nigerian government through the NAF will not lead to people signing up as insurgents. As a parent, I can't imagine what my reaction would be to a killing of children or wards by 'mistake'.

I hereby use this medium to call for the resignation of the Airforce and Army Chief's in Nigeria, this mistake is totally unacceptable.

US airstrikes have killed who inside US? Don't you know the difference between an outside mission and an internal one? How can an army bomb its own citizens and tag it a mistake?

I was going to write something to this effect, good thing I read through and saw this, nothing more to add. This tragedy was clearly deliberate and in a sane clime, there'd be fall guys already in place to take the heat which then gives the mistake scenario some plausibility but here, they'll eat their cake, collect yours and leave rabid supporters to do damage control. Some top military officials should have been relieved of their duties by now for this fiasco.

im not justifying lives that has been lost. Mr man accept a mistake and move on. Stop formulating theories where there are non. Now that they are dead what can you do about it. Do you think the military derives pleasure in killing its own citizens? What have you done about it if not to come here and rant on social media. Sir it is you without a soul. You and countless other Nigerians that only bark loudest by critisizm.

But of course u can be sure that d government just filled up insurgent positions with this wickedness tagged 'mistake'! It's bad enough they had been displaced and left at the mercy of an insensitive govt which has practically abandoned then to their fate and then in such deplorable conditions they still get used for target practice! Hell no! Some people will definitely decide to join d insurgency train with pain and anger against the unfairness and injustice!

normally in cases like this the general who gave the go ahead to bomb the targeted location is to be disciplined by the military if found to have conducted such, unprofessionally. Thats all. Nothing political.
