After 12months of surviving deadly Boko Haram attacks that eventually led to shootouts between the Nigeria military troops and deadly Boko Haram troops, a Nigerian soldier took to his Instagram page to appreciate God’s protection and to remember fallen soldiers who were casualties of this attack.

WITHIN NIGERIA had earlier reported that the Nigerian Army have been doing everything humanly possible to flush out Boko-Haram troops from the entire Borno state and North-Eastern part of the country which once led to securing of local governments that were at the mercy of the Boko Haram troops.

The yet-to-be identified soldier said that he is grateful to God that he is a living testimony because the incident occured in October 8 as at the same time he was writing this post and what they thought would finish within a hour lasted for 6 hours.

The survivor of the Boko-Haram attacks who described the incident as a bloody one and urged Nigerians to pray for special forces warriors and dedicated soldiers who were killed in the attack by the Boko-Haram troops.
