Army denies 150 people drowned after Boko haram attack in Yobe

The Nigerian Army has denied reports that 150 Nigerians drowned in a river & some shot dead after Boko Haram members invaded their community in Kukuwa-Gari village in Yobe state last Thursday.

AFP earlier today reported that some residents of the community said the sect members attacked their community and about 150 people lost their lives. Director Defence Information, Rabe Abubakar spoke to newsmen.

  2. I hope so


    Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.
    But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy banana, our bargaining game gets off to the roof. Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it was for her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough.
    But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. But because 'half bread is better chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain. In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well.
    God will definitely provide.'' While you happily chop the luscious banana. Take some seconds out and think about this, guys. Please don't bargain hard with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags, Gucci shoes but to LIVE and EAT!

    1. 100 percent true. Pls nigerians, don't bargain too much with all these small vendors, they are just trying to make ends meet. Especially those that have the money and pay a little bit more then bargaining them out of existence

    2. You are just a useless boy,during the time of GEJ you would have said the army is lying since the news originated from AFP. To what purpose is this your level of sycophancy. I am certain now if Buhari's son raped your sis that you peddled here the other time on this blog,you will say she deserves it.

  7. I hope to heaven that the number isn't up to 150. I know the NA wouldn't want to accept that and tarnish their reputation in the process.
