The Nigerian Army has laid to rest the remains of the late Commander, 29 Joint Taskforce Brigade, Brigadier General Oseni Braimah, Captain Ismail, and other soldiers killed in recent insurgents attacks in Borno State.
The attacks, which occurred on April 9, were carried out by suspected Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province fighters, who launched simultaneous assaults on multiple military positions in Benisheikh, a strategic town in Kaga Local Government Area along the Maiduguri-Damaturu highway.
This comes as troops of the 115 Task Force Battalion repelled a fresh attack by suspected terrorists on Wednesday.
The Army in a statement on its official Facebook handle, @Nigerian Army HQ on Wednesday, said the military heroes were buried at the Maimalari Cantonment Cemetery in Maiduguri
