The Nigerian Army has removed an army commander whose unit
rebelled yesterday in Maiduguri. Major General Ahmadu Mohammed was shot at by
angry soldiers of the 7th Division yesterday in Maiduguri’s Maimalari Barracks.
The soldiers became angry
when they saw the bodies of 12 of their colleagues being brought back from
Chibok. Boko Haram fighters had killed the soldiers after the militants
ambushed a convoy of soldiers returning from duties in Chibok.
A spokesman of the
Nigerian Army, Major General Chris Olukolade, announced the removal of the
General Officer commanding the 7th Division today.
