Sahara Reporters is reporting that Boko Haram militants attacked a platoon led by the son of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, shooting him today.. They say he ustained
serious injuries to his legs and was being transported to the hospital
at the time of their report. Find it below...
"Adeboye Obasanjo, an army engineer, was a Lieutenant Colonel at the 3rd Division in Jos, Plateau State.
He
and his platoon were engaged with Boko Haram militants at Baza, which
is the village of the General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the 3rd
division when the incident took place." Continue...
The Lieutenant Agwu of the 234
battalion, GOC of the 3rd Division, Major Gen JS Zaruwa and Colonel
Victor Ebhaleme who serves as the Brigade Commander of the 23rd Army
brigade in Yola were all together advancing towards Michika when Boko
Haram fighters unleashed the deadly attack on the soldiers."
24 soldiers in the platoon were reportedly killed by the militants.
Apart from the dead soldiers, the army also lost an armored tank to
the militants. As a result of the attack, the army has moved sensitive
weapons from mubi to the Brigade headquarters in Yola leaving mubi
vulnerable to attack. The town of Mubi has practically been deserted
following the closure of schools and massive retreat of soldiers from
the city.
The former president is currently traveling in Singapore according to family sources.

It is a good thing for a man to fight and die for his country, well done to obasanjo son... More grace to your elbow! If you must die, Die like a warrior.
obasanjo is indeed a nationalist, he has done so much for 9ja fearlessly. his son wud not die
Jesus! Pls, take absolute control ooooo.
I'm not surprise because TB joshua has said it that if our leaders don't put politics aside and bring back our girls the Bokoharam insurgents will come for our leaders. felixlino82@yahoo.com
I realy do admire Obasanjo's spirit, he allowed his son folo his steps and go into d army. He is not d type of leader dat says go, but lets go... I pray he survives dis
Sad news may his gentle soul rest in peace
Sad news may his gentle soul rest in peace
why will this man allow his child to join the military and then even agree that he should be posted to death center. He should have used his powers to protect his child fa. Anways I respect the young man for protecting his country. I respect most military personell. Its a tough job
Nah whaooooo dis bokoharam am tire of all dere wahala infact i'm fed up but all d blame go for our Sleepless President ebelle Goodluck Jonathan for not take strong hand to handle dis fuckin matter#Adamawa and jos on fire right now

thank God, he still alive
i wish him quick recovery
BORN TO SHINE!!!!!
This shows that OBJ is fighting boko haram better than the condemner in chief GEJ.
He warned us about the consequences of inaction over bk early on in GEJ 's tenure. And at any rate why should anyone except a former president to fight bk? I so wish obj would run for office again if buhari is doing it then obj should also run for office. Under him things will change. I loved naija under obj. Now naija is just like any other terror filled country. Even Nigerians in diaspora have lost their minds.
U must be a nincompoo! Has any of your family fought boko haram? For Obj to allow his son with all his wealth, he is beyter off than ur father.
The only thing we here is that the boko haram killed Soldiers, Are the boko iron men? Cant the solders kill some of them some times at least? didn't they say that the best form of defense is attack? why can't them attack boko Haram too?
Like dogs will eat your parents corpse. Idiot
They just touched the tail of a sleeping tiger, but will he bite? Let's wait see, maybe this what saves us from the treacherous leeches!
Illiterate. Did the report say he was killed?
This thing has gotten out of hand.
Pray the young man recovers sooner. God punish Boko haram
See hottest Nigerian Gist here
dumb much
Read well b4 u comment Olodo
Yes ooo. Boye is his son.
Taaaaah!!!
My respect for obj just upped 1million percent. 90% of our bastard politicians do not have ANY of their children in the frontlines of war neither do they have them protecting the interests of naija. Obj is a true warrior. May his son survive this and I personally thank the son for fighting those evil doers who are determined to run naija to the ground. You will all perish soon in Jesus name
Wait o was this his wedding day picture? Cos I see like a wedding gown next to him. May his wife not be turned to a widow o. God please heal him
Bh una d find baba trouble ooo yawa don gas be dat nah.God help us
You must be sick in your head. Most big men will lobby for their sons not to go to d battle field. This shows both baba and son are patriotic.
Yo FOOL... he is not dead. read the whole shit again
Ode...'rest in peace' ko.take time to properly b4 commenting
TB Joshua said "a big Nigerian shot will be killed by Boko Haram"..........I digress. God help us all.
My oga Boye, I pray God makes u well and heal ur wounds. For those who do not know, even when his father was President, this guy was just another regular officer, very disciplined, humble &dedicated.
Mumu
He's not dead, just injured.
Boko Haram will first wipe out ur entire family before they kill him and his father in Jesus Name. Useless idiot
God will help us
Dis sounds like 'Dnt touch my son' tin. Cos i dnt undastnd de mere attempt on prominent ppls life and killing of the poor n un.... Soldiers. Just thinking
Did you read the report at all?
God dey o
Why won't he regard him as his son, you think say na beans to enter army? Who link am up, no be him father? You should also remember that his father attended his marriage to that igbo lady. So Obj recognize his son.
Show yourself. You're the most senseless bastard that has ever lived. Stupid fool. They should have killed you.
Amen o. His son would live.
Linda didn't say he died ooo uncle Anonymous. Read thru before u comment plz
Hian. He hasn't died yet na. Abi na so you wish am dead ni?
You would not die well! It is you and your family members they would kill. Bloody bastard!

Coward like you. Is it the Army's fault that you NEVER succeeded in ALL your trials to join the NA?. Go n join Civil Defence ooooooooo. Defeated soul like you, we don't need you. Ahhhhhh. As you go anonymous I a feeling I know this goat; Ewu kambia.
Its just a shame on the Federal Government BH has been ruling this country for the pat 4 years now .they determine who lives and who dies..... very Sad..... the present state of this country is really terrible. i dont even think any reasonable person should vote for the present Governance again come 2015 Honestly.... a Government that can not tackle this BH boys .. does it mean they are more powerful than the Goverment? then this bring me to the conclusion that FG Is just a toothless Bull Dog.BH has killed countless people maybe close to 10,000 by now. so sad!!!!! God help us in this country!Amen
so what if he is Obasanjo's son?????? what about the countless souls that have been lost without their names and families been referred to in the news.. because he is Obasanjo's son , it is now a major headline. they should all wait till they start killing the politicians and their loved ones one after the other.. rubbish!!!! it is only in Naija u see such fanatism. the politicians should sit back and keep blaming Jonathan when they are the ones causing it.. they forget that you cannot tame a mad dog. they will get to them soon.
Go back n read the post again.haba
Aburi Accord playing out
Go back to primary school bcos it's obvious u can't read.
Lol.. na now boko go hear am
U r a bh urself, men lik u r suppose be hanged and starve to death. God punish ur family for wishing a compatriot, a real Nigerian death. Have u ever hear Tinubu's son's or Buhari's son's name in d military? Bastard
Idiota
Na you put the fire for Jos? Its your mouth that is on fire.. Ofofo!
Mhmmmmm. No comment.
May u and ur love ones die young. For daring to wish a well meaning Nigerian death u and anyone u hav left in this world shall die young.
This movie will be very interesting. Watch out for part 2. Thanks
The issues of insurgency will be very difficult to curtail since d nigerian military has being exposed to politics.
Does he have two heads,thousands of live has been lost bcos of boko haram.
let the past and present rulers sought themselves out and save the lives of innocent citizens
May God b with these soldiers and grant them total victory. But for d boko haram, our land shall spew them and their generations out.

FIRST TO COMMENT****(GURU)
IS A PITY..I DON'T BELIEVE THAT A FORMER PRESIDENT CAN ALLOW HIS SON TO BE FIGHTING BOKO HARAM, INSTEAD OF JUST SITTING IN THE OFFICE AND BE GIVING ORDER..WONDERFUL! GET WELL SOON GALLANT SOLDIER..
