The Executive Chairman, Geidam Local Government Area of Yobe State, Hon Ali Kolo, exclusively said, 72 hours when armed group of Boko Haram invaded the town, thousands of his people are still trapped and mingling with the sect , even as he said, the terrorists slaughtered two people on Sunday morning including Kawuri Primary School Teacher, Mallam Baba Tazira.

This is even as over 2,000 people who were displaced by the invasion are currently taking refuge in neighbouring Yunusari Local Government Area.

Kolo said since the Boko Haram invasion three days ago when he was away for official engagement, he couldn’t find his way to Geidam as the town is under the total control of Boko Haram. He, however, denied military reports claiming that the attack have been repelled, insisting that, the insurgents are the ones in charge of Geidam as at the time of filling in this report.

“As we speak, two of my people including a teacher at Kawuri Primary school, Mallam Baba Tazira, a Babur/Bura man have been slaughtered this morning.

The teacher who has been a very dedicated staff was slaughtered in his official staff quarters behind the school, and this is in addition to dozens of my people who were killed, injured, displaced and missing since the three days invasion.”

Kolo stated. He, however, expressed shock over the military’s statement yesterday (Saturday) which was signed by the Director Army Public Relations, Brigadier Mohammed Yerima that ‘the attack has been repelled with 21 casualties from the side of the terrorists’.

On the situational update about the plights of the 2,000 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Yunusari, the Director General of Yobe State Emergency Management Agency (YOSEMA), Dr Mohammed Goje told our Correspondent that the situation is pathetic, but the state Governor, Hon Mai Mala Buni has directed his agency to take an immediate action to provide relief items.

“At this challenging time, as directed by His Excellency, Governor Mai Mala Buni, we deeply extended our sympathy and Commiserate with the good people of Geidam community over the unfortunate reported incidences.

“As an agency of government, we pray for continuous success of security agencies, the victims of the attack and restoration of peace to the affected community.

“Among the responsibility of YOSEMA is to ensure all emergency victims and survivors of conflict who need emergency attention are attended to and those displaced from their homes are provided with immediate succor.

i am not sympathizing with them, IBB would have handled the security issues in the country with a different approach , things are seriously getting out of hand , Nigeria is getting to a point of no return , the soldiers are not handling things intelligently

There are far too many battle fronts and soldiers are dying daily including officers, this gross incompetence , the military high command needs to change tactics , they are igniting another battle front in the east as i am typing this

Ehen.. Lori iro

Fulani army and taqiyya. Bloody liars like their provost, Lai Mohammed and their father, the devil.

They left Yobe, where bandits are actually killing pple nd came to the East, where there's peace to come and kill ESN operatives.

Tueh!

one Nijjeriya is a stale joke.

The army just like the Nigerian government has been busted severally for lying so childishly and blatantly.
No wonder no sane person believes anytime they put out press releases of having killed insurgents

I wonder if this killing and kidnapping will ever stop in this country,you wake up to bad news around the country like it’s a normal thing and nothing is been done to find a lasting solution to the problems........

Misplaced priority causing all these...


That strength wey u dey use the chase Ipob boys for the keep this people safe

Pantami is working

Imagine. You don't work with a beast and believe you can completely tame it. How I wish this BH can only go after those that created, empowered, finance and always sympathize with them for their selfish reason and leave innocent people alone. Yet all that matter to the politicians even with the hight rate of insecurity, poverty, etc is the next election come 2023. Sadly those whose lives will easily be a specimen are the ones ignorantly shouting for president to come from their region, religion, etc even though all politicians speak one language which is sharing of looting to their themselves irrespective of their tribe. There is certainly no hope for this country.

everybody just dey kee pesin for this contri

Why are the troops there not posting victory the way the are killing IPOB commandos and rank sacking Chiefs in Benue. What is going on is systematic war against the south and east.

But God no go shame us!

Let all the troops be withdrawn to the East. They are more terrible than bokoharam

Unfortunately the useless army can't win in a single loca government.

Al quada and ISIS will take over Nigeria eventually

What a government!

Yet IPOB is there problem

Nice one Boko Haram

All Zoo army and police must be deleted.

Stupid maputas

Naija na Abokiland

Na aboki dey rule
Na aboki dey steal most of the money
Na aboki man be terrorist, bandit and kidnappers
Na also aboki man dey sympathize with these criminals
I just wish these wahala na only for aboki land e end
Who care if you kill all your 100th generation,
Na your wahala be that
But nor carry your rubbish enter south
Stay for your aboki terrain dey kill una self
Bunch of nama in human skin

Buhari is doing well

, come here and defend darling daddy's incompetence

The way the media reports all these is full of sensationalism. We talk of these things like it started in this Buhari regime and that's not fair.

This government is despicably useless..

all this soldiers don buy market sheby dem sabi kill innocent people ni

Let's compare a Zoologist and an Ex-Gen in term of their handling security issues, promoting unity of Nigeria.
No story

Like for Gej share for PMB
