''I'm not undermining the Nigerian army, but these pictures say nothing... 6 motorcycles, 21 motorcycles, 5 terrorists were killed, a logistic bus was recovered plus another 10 motorcyles and 350 people rescued''..

In the pictures, I see a car burning, a burning field, one motorcycle, three dead bodies and the rescued people who aren't even up to 50.  Keep Misinforming us, I don't believe everything I read.

''Troops of Nigerian Army in various sectors in Operation Lafiya Dole have been carrying out raids, patrols, cordon and search operations in a bid to clear REMNANTS of Boko Haram terrorists in their respective areas of operations''

Now I see how they've been misleading this present government, you call those remaining B.H boys REMNANTS ? Undermining these guys is the bigger risk.....
