This video shows what remained of an army outpost after Boko Haram militants attacked a Nigerian army unit in Izge a township near Gwoza, Borno State.
The militants arrived the area in two pick up vans shot and killed nine soldiers and made away with 8 military vehicles and 200 powerful bombs.
Some of the bombs are long range bombs capable of traveling the distance between Suleja in Niger State and the Presidential Villa in Asokoro area of Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.
Nigerian soldiers on the war front are poorly equipped, underpaid and under trained as superior officers in the Nigerian defense force corruptly enrich themselves leaving the soldiers on the frontline with little ammunition and logistic support to fight Islamist militants.
