Olaleye Aluko, AbujaThe Islamic State West African Province terrorists, a faction of Boko Haram, have released a video showing the alleged capture of a Nigerian Navy base around Lake Chad in Borno State. The video showed four naval personnel captured alive by ISWAP and later executed by the terrorists. Meanwhile, in the video by the ISWAP fighters, three of the naval personnel introduced themselves as Ebirek Adewale, Muhammed Muhammed, and Aliyu Adamu. The video showed some Armoured Personnel Carriers, gun trucks and other weapons the insurgents claimed to have stolen from the Nigerian military. The video footage is undoubtedly an amateurish attempt to save face, having suffered enormous losses in several encounters with troops in the last seven months.”Copyright PUNCH.
