Al Jazeera obtains exclusive footage of army's battle against Boko Haram, with women and children shown among the dead.
Al Jazeera has obtained the first images of the Nigerian army's battle against Boko Haram fighters in the northern state of Borno.
The pictures appear to show the bodies of Boko Haram rebels and many civilians, including women and children. One soldier told Al Jazeera he had seen almost 3,000 corpses.
The Nigerian army have been fighting the group since a state of emergency was declared on May 14 in areas where the fighters have been operating.
The Nigerian army has also released 58 women and children suspected of having links to Boko Haram.
Al Jazeera's Yvonne Ndege reports exclusively from Maiduguri.

This is a Media propaganda to discredit the Nigeria military campaign against the insurgents. This is happening in colaboration with the socalled Northern Elders. Earlier they claim to have a video they will use as evidence against FGN in world court. What a cheap Blackmail!!! Where are the footage on dead women and children in this ridiculous video? If that imposter is a Nigeria Soldier why can't he get a good coverage Of those innocent victims as claimed or why are We not allowed to hear his voice even a bit? Aljezeera is owned by Arabs we know that they are trying to show solidarity to BH their underground crony that's why they condecend so low to produce such falacious and libelous content.shame on you! We salute the effort of our soldiers kudus.
ReplyDeleteYou've said it all
ReplyDeleteWhat about the video of all d innocent victims their puppet BH killed & destruction they did.deceptive coverage
ReplyDeleteYes... good one 2 hell wt Aljazeera wt dia useless video
ReplyDeleteShame unto you Yvonne. You are a bad reporter. Go to Syria to make your report. You have never reported any good on Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteThis is my second comment about this story without publication. Please publish it.
ReplyDeleteThe ascent of the fake soldier is not a nigerian ascent therfore that soldier is not a Nigerian soldier afterall anybody could dress in militry uniform, back the camera and say rubbish. No dead body of civilian, women and children were shown in the video, this is pure media propaganda to discredit the good work of the Nigerian militry.
ReplyDeleteShame on aljazeera.
If I had any doubt before, this video has definitely erased it. Aljazeera is definitely a terrorist television station. Showing civilians killed in bama by wicked insurgents weeks before the state of emergency in a documentary critizing nigerian army. Haba! They don't even know the difference btw militants and military. What nonsense.!
ReplyDeleteAljazeera has always been pro Islam so anyone expecting something different is deceiving him/herself.
ReplyDeleteI was expecting to see the evidence they have only to behold a BH member clad in camouflage talking rubbish.
You think that Nigerians cannot think?.
ReplyDelete....please we need to see more BH dead body. Thank you aLJazeera. We are happy for the dead. MORE OF THAT. Nothing will happen, nothing has happens, aljazeera information cannot deceived the good Nigerians. The fact is that Aljazeera is part of Boko Haram sponsors.
Please kill more BOKOs...kudus!!!
This interview is a scam and a sham. The army speaking in the interview has an OYINBO accent. Except Al jezerra is telling us that we have foreigners in our army.
ReplyDeleteThank GOD for all the wise comment I ve seen here today. When Boko Haram where killing innocent people who have gone to worship there GOD, where was Aljazeera ??? Cheap blackmail of Northern Children Forum (NEF)
ReplyDeleteThat is why we Nigerians must come out in mass to support our president GEJ. We must justify the death of over 5,000 Nigerians by standing against the aim of introducing Boko Allal. (Presidency to d North)
Wat about d video of d multiple bomb blast that killed innocents civilians in kano..wat about d bomb blast that happened on chrismas day at malaba.wat about d bomb blast that happened at a motor park at kaduna and many more..why didnt aljazeera captured all these..Now d military has been able fight them fire 4 fire and bullet 4 bullet you are now reporting rubblish
ReplyDeleteAljazeera= boko animals. Stupid station!
ReplyDeleteNo mind this our BLOOD-THIRSTY RELIGION of PEACE. I believe that PEACE must be an IRONICAL PEACE.
ReplyDeleteIf d soldier is really a nigerian let him show his face and become a hero for telling d truth..this is a pure media propaganda.
ReplyDeleteI am so disappointed at Al-Jazeera. I want to believe that that TV station or channel is owned by terrorists or their cronies. I didn't see the dead bodies! Besides, Boko haram members have been dressing in Nigerian Army camouflage, so I want to believe that one BH member is the one granting such an ignoble interview. Aljazeera Haram, you people shouldn't think Nigerians are fools. We don't need you in our country.
ReplyDeleteStupid propaganda. It is this same station Osama was using to reach the world. How do you distinguish between civilians and boko haram? Do boko haram have a special uniform. It seems the reporter knows them. That is why he knew that the bh in the area were 30. Witch
ReplyDeleteListen, it's better the military kill 120 civilians but wipe away the BOKO haram than to fold our hands as a nation and allow these bloody hungry monsters kill more than 5,000 civilians: the rational is horrible. Does it mean that Aljazerra, wanted us to sponsor BH till they Islamise the nation as they anticipate? Anyway the Aljazerra themselves confirm that they don't have the footage of the purported killed civilians. Therefore it remains a rumor. The self acclaimed soldier in the interview is not a Nigerian but self made Yankee Muslim extremist following his accent. Aljazerra is a Muslim TV. All their report must be pro- Muslim. Therefore lets not expect better deal from them. Bit let them also realize that Nigerians as wiser now that there evil report cannot make any difference to our commitment to wipe away BOKO QUARAM HARAM from our system. QED.
ReplyDeleteKudos to all the comment
ReplyDeleteIts really unfortunate.if the govt didnt send out the army to defend the teritory it will be said that govt is insensitive.aljazeera verify your facts before broadcasting.why all this lies in the name of news.there is no footage to prove what you are saying.am disappointed at aljazeera
ReplyDeleteThank u Nigerians!!!
ReplyDeleteAlthough i‘m not to certain or sure about this report from the Al-Jazeera satelite stations,but for all i know those idiots will never believe even if this report from Al-Jazeera happened to be true.Those idiots were confused bcos of what some of their so call prophets and pastors preach to them in their gathering on sundays and in their bible classes,their mind is so polluted and poisoned that they hardly believe the truth even if the truth come from their “CREATOR“especailly if the truth has been associated with ISLAM or the MUSLIMS.Oh,what a pity this is how they will continue to wander on earth in confussion and in doubt until when that disease of hypocrise has been completely cured and arased in totality from their ill-hearted chest.What a congregation of uncultured animals in human form!
ReplyDeleteTurani or whatevr U call Urself, until U come out of DARKNESS, U'll NEVER see the LIGHT. ANIMAL, so that Ur RELIGION that has LICENCE 2 SPILL HUMAN BLOOD is what U prefer. STUPID FOOL, pls mind Ur FOOLISH FAITH and LEAVE our PASTORS alone. RELIGION of "PEACE" my FOOT.
ReplyDeleteAl-Jezera was not alive when these people were terorizing Nigeria. Boko Haram has no uniform. I wounder how you now know who is civilian. Stop distabilizing developping nations.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth will Nigeria government allow Al-Jazeera into our country? them are all islamic terrorist, working for BK, the person been interview is not a military person buy Northern leader game plan.
ReplyDeleteel-matosky:wht an animal name u got,pls dont be so upset abt my words it‘s jst a lttl of hw to describe u ppl for an easy identification and a lttl advice ur idiot self and those gud for nottin so call phophets and stupid pastor dat re misguiding u.d sooner u ppl stay away from dat idol worshiping u call reliong the bettr for u idiots.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Late Gen. Abacha sent Al-Jazeera out of Nigeria during his regime. They are just pro-Islam and serious supporters of terrorism along with Press TV their sister. We are tired of your falsehood.
ReplyDeletehas a nigerian i pray the northern leaders and governors would be most sincere to thier people. the age long use of religion as a tool in the north is eating that part of the country and causing so much distraction to our development as a nation
ReplyDeleteThis is the beginning of boko haram's frustration. Thumbs up to Nigerian army. Kudos Nigerians
