Abubakar has reacted to report that 23 Nigerian soldiers are yet to be
accounted for after Boko Haram insurgents ambushed a military convoy at Boboshe
village in Bama local government area of Borno State.
Five officers, 18 soldiers and 8

Lake Chad region.

Atiku expressed concerns over the whereabouts of the missing soldiers.
Atiku on Twitter wrote, ”I’m
concerned about the fate of scores of our soldiers declared missing following
