This is what Arab slavers used to do during the slave trade. Boko Haram are reviving the slave trade!
Why are our journalist always afraid to report issues the way they are .Why not say “dozens of Boko Haram militants” rather than saying “fleeing”.dozens of Boko Haram militants”. Fleeing from where and from who?. Using the word “fleeing” portrays it as if it was an unplanned attack by just a few remaining Boko Haram members who were running for their lives.
By using the word “fleeing”, you are indirectly telling Nigerians that there will be no such attack again as the remaining members of Boko Haram have flee from Nigeria territory due to our complete takeover. We all know our military are gallantly trying their best and more kudos to them , but we also know that Boko Haram still have a stronghold in those remote areas. So stop painting words.

We will review and take appropriate action.
