The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality..., the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā'at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da'wah wa'l-Jihād killed at least 25 soldiers in Borno State.
SaharaReporters gathered that the soldiers were on patrol to clear some Boko Haram elements in Monguno area on September 16, 2021 when they were ambushed by the murderous Moslems.
The deadly attack left about 25 soldiers dead while some are still missing five days after the incident.
Meanwhile,

the Nigerian Army secretly contacted some of the families of the dear departed, informing them that their loved ones had been deposited in a morgue.
SaharaReporters gathered that military operational vehicles, several weapons and ammunition were stolen during the attack.
Monguno is north, about 70km drive from Maiduguri, the state capital and hosted thousands of Internally Displaced Persons mostly from Dikwa and Marte council areas.
"At least 25 soldiers have been confirmed dead, the authorities have contacted some of their families, their bodies are already deposited at the morgue," a source told SaharaReporters on Monday evening.
The attack comes a few days after the bully boyz killed 10 Nigerian soldiers after dislodging a military base in Rann, the administrative headquarters of Kala-Balge Local Government Area of Borno State.
Authorities of the Nigeria Army have, however, been silent on both incidents.
Boko Haram and its offshoot, Islamic State West Africa Province, have killed thousands and displaced millions in North-Eastern Nigeria.
