3 gbosa for our Nigeria soldiers

Can't see any Fulani look alike over here.....I just hope dis is truly what it is

How manage?

God will help this country

Better late than never. Buhari was a plaque. The eleventh plaque i guess.

I hope Army didn't kill Vigilante in the name of killing bandit.

Good........
Told them on before...........Tinubu is Mr no nonsense..........seems our military guy r finally up from their slumber........... unlike toothless general buhari era...........

This is good if true.
More of this pls

. Wait a minute, those don't look like fresh dead bodies involved in a firefight! These look like they've been dead for days

Wow

A lot of them will be killed.. They are no match for the Nigerian Military normal, just that the past istration didn't have political will to end the nonsense. The injured bandits they are chasing will eventually get killed.

this was swift ,tinubu gave order and NA obeyed...this is really change in goverment

Tinubu say, bring then down unlike the man with diarrhoea

The insurgents have been advised to flee Nigeria while they still can before a total clampdown starts. The new CoAS ain't playing with anybody as it stands.
This is how a serious government should operate... not the one that mallam attorney general called Malami was doing backing herdsmen to be killing farmers and destroying people's properties because they are from North. Renewed hope truly.

Renewed hope in our military.

However, this bandit looks like a son of the soil and not the Futa Jalons who are usually associated with such crimes and criminality.


Hoping this feat will be replicated across the nation.

Big up Lagbaja!!

Confirma..

Them don print fake police id give d dead

I trust Tinubu ... Nigerian Army would show bandits shege, no more special protection for any tribe

Fulani that misbehave would get apprehended

To the people asking about the Police ID card

He is not a Police Officer...

Buhari recruited some special constabulary as comiunity police and volunteers, same Buhari refused to pay them, and most have turned to crime and prostitution




.

This plateau state issues may be more communal clashes than Fulani menace. Though am not ruling out evil fulanis because they are capable of those atrocities. Again these guys might be on a revenge missions (like local vigilantes) after those fulani bandits and they snitch on them by reporting them to the military.
Anyway, they should intensity that and spread that to Benue, southern Kaduna, Zamfara, some Eastern parts and Niger states. No room for blood sucking demons.

why not volunteer to do the job. Have you ever given out information to assist security agencies in carrying out their duties? You really need to stop watching action movies and realise real lives are at stake.

Waiting police constable the do among bandit?
Still wondering.

Buhari is not toothless. He was just complicit.

All these killings happened in the North Central, but nobody was killed, arrested or prosecuted.

He is the same man who gives amnesty to terrorists killing innocent people and raping underage girls in forests after abduction.

Waiting police constable the do among bandit?
Still wondering. Still waiting for another version or full version of the story. Police man with identify card amount bandit.
