The Governor of Ekiti State,
Ayodele Fayose has called on the federal government to tell Nigerians the truth
about ‘Boko Haram overrunning the military base in Borno State.
Fayose said this while reacting
to reports that Boko Haram killed some soldiers during an attack in Gudumbale,
Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State.
Borno State deputy governor,
Usman Mamman Durkwa had on Saturday confirmed that Boko Haram attacked a
military base located in Gudumbali, the Headquarters of Guzamala Local
Government Area of the state.
Although Durkwa insisted that he
was yet to get the actual number of casualties from security forces, after he
had conversation with the Police Commissioner, Mr. Damian Chukwu and the
Brigade Commander of Military Forces in Monguno, sources said several soldiers
fled the area due to the firepower of the insurgents.
Reacting to the incident, Fayose
on Twitter said the killing of soldiers who risk their lives to defend Nigeria
was disgusting.
He wrote, ”News on Boko Haram
killing our soldiers is disturbing. May God protect these men who are risking
their lives to defend our country.
”Most importantly, FG must tell
Nigerians the truth on this “technically defeated” Boko Haram still overrunning
military base and killing soldiers.”
