Chief of Army staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai has waved aside reports that about 105 soldiers prosecuting the war against Boko Haram terrorists met their untimely death when they failed to return in a bid to annihilate the terrorists in the North East.
The media had been awashed with news that about 105 Nigerian soldiers were missing after Boko Haram attacks in the epicenter of the battle.
But General Buratai in a telephone conversation with Newsmen said, “It is not true that our soldiers are missing. The soldiers went on a mission for the Nigerian nation and they have since returned and joined their Battalions”.
The confident Chief of Army Staff said that insinuation is a figment of imagination of the authors of the story.

I never expected them to agree to it. Let’s see
Am not surprised to hear the army chief to denied this
Nigeria army can lie, if you want to die in the hands of boko haram keep listening to Nigeria army
Then you better tell us where you keep them
This is good Good news may God helps our gallant soldiers
This could be true
In every rumor there’s elements of truth in side
Before nko? Actor no dey die na!
Those 150 soldiers have families, if they are not alive you can’t lie to the families. So I am hopeful the General is telling the truth
