Army denies Boko Haram Attack on Soldiers, Workers at Electricity Facility in Borno

The Nigerian Army has denied social media reports of alleged killing of five soldiers and workers by Boko Haram Terrorists during repairs of an electricity facility along Maiduguri- Damaturu road in Borno State

Colonel Ado Isa, Deputy Director Army Public Relations described the report as “Fake, misleading, and capable of undermining the counter insurgency campaign.”

He said, “Contrary to the rumours making the rounds, nobody was attacked on the route as the road was cleared for the maiden visitation of the Chief of Army Staff, General Ibrahim Attahiru who visited troops of Special Army Super Camp Ngamdu.

“No work took place on the TCN  facility as the workers were asked not to go to the site  because our troops who were supposed to provide the escort were assigned to other patrol in preparation for the COAS’ visit.

“To this end, the Nigerian Army wishes to unequivocally state that the claims contained in the disjointed reports on Nigerian troops are nothing but fake, malicious and frivolous aimed as causing unnecessary tention and instilling fear.

“We, therefore, request the general public to disregard them in their entirety.”he said.
