The moment the school received the letter they informed our battalion, which is the Guards Brigade.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dInstantly, we went there and started an all round defence deployment.  We were now contemplating that these people who said that they were coming to attack the school may have plan B to attack another place, so we now looked for a nearest prominent target that they may come for as well, and that happens to be one Veritas University, very close to the law school, like3.2km away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe went there as well to create all round defence.  We were there for over two weeks  before this attack came up on Sunday.  Normally in the night, we often observed some torchlight in the bush at that Veritas University, they say \u2018Ah Ah, who are these people in this bush\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe asked those security men in that school, \u2018is this how you people normally observe torchlight?  They said no.  So when it was dawn, we advanced into the bush. It was on Sunday; I went with them myself. Do you get it? I was there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we got there, we saw where the terrorists smoked, killed goat, ate. We saw their tramadol, that was when we confirmed that these people are in this bush.  We now re-enforced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe had some backup who brought APC, gun trucks, Artillery Team.  We now advanced into the bush on Sunday, searching for them.  We got to a point where is a body of water and some rock.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe gun truck could not channel into that particular route, so we had to park them there.  That was why we had casualties, to be sincere with you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe parked the AA, we parked the GPMG, we parked the gun trucks because we couldn\u2019t advance with them. We went into the bush with our rifles alone and the Ak-47 we were all carrying.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe didn\u2019t even carry RPG, I am telling you the simple truth.  We thought they (terrorists) might just be a pocket of enemy, that maybe they will not be more than 20, 30 or thereabout.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo the moment we went into the bush, they had seen us from a very far distance, we didn\u2019t  see them. They now laid ambush, waiting for us to come and penetrate. They flanked us from left and right, so the moment we got to their own  area of responsibility, AOR, my brother it\u2019s a long story. They engaged us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe lost four soldiers in my unit; it was three units that went there, 177 and 102 from Keffi, including my unit, 7 guards\u2019 battalion. They dislodged us because they were fully prepared. They used Mortar Shells, IED explosive devices, they shelled us but we still managed to kill 12 of them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThey succeeded in killing one captain, one lieutenant and two soldiers in my unit.  In another unit, we lost one soldier of 177 battalion Keffi, while 102 battalion lost one soldier as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut at least, we engaged them to some extent, so that is the situation but from now, we have been dislodging them since that day through re-enforcement. In short, I don\u2019t think any of them is in that bush again, they\u2019ve all fled through this Kaduna route but we will follow them, we will bombard that place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe will go back to the place the gun truck could not penetrate.  As I\u2019m talking to you, I\u2019m in National Hospital but we just bless God for everything. So that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not that they have the mind to face soldiers, they knew we were outside, that is the reason they couldn\u2019t come outside. Had it been there were no soldiers in that law school, the terrorists would have scattered that school but they waited because they knew soldiers were outside and we remained there like it was our barrack.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe manned the road leading to the school with 10 soldiers everyday, armed with rifles and gun truck.  That is how we\u2019ve been doing it till the attack.  If you hear anything other than what I am explaining to you now is a lie<\/p>\n<p>\u201dEverybody is just gathering information to say many things on social media that are not real. As I\u2019m talking to you now, I\u2019m in National Hospital and they are communicating with me because I\u2019m with some soldiers here as well that are injured. You guys should just be helping us in prayers. May God help us all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dismissing the voice note at a briefing in Abuja yesterday, Defence headquarters said the person in the viral voice note was an unknown soldier without identity and should be ignored. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the soldiers, who claimed to be among the Presidential Guards Brigade, ambushed by terrorists has revealed how some officers and men of the Brigade were killed by Boko Haram on Sunday in Abuja.
