Boko Haram’s attack on Metele, Abadam Local Government Area of Borno State on 18 November , 2018 left caused the casualty.

The burial took place at the military cemetery of the Maimalari Cantonment in Maiduguri, the Borno state capital.

Among those buried on Friday amid tears, prayers and emotional speeches was the Commanding Officer of the 157 Battalion of the Nigerian Army, the battalion attacked.

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai, was represented at the ceremony by the Chief of Training Operations, Major General Lamidi Adeosun, who warned that fake news could undermine the effort of the Army and dampening the morale of troops.

Deputy Governor of Borno State Usman Durkwa was also at the ceremony to commiserate with the grieving families and the army.

Soldiers had occupied Metele in 2017 for clearance operations after they recaptured it from terrorists who had displaced the civilian population from the area.

Although the Nigerian Army was shaken by the attack, it insists it remains determined in its goal of eliminating all threats to the nations territorial integrity.
