the local and state governments for help, but nothing concrete
92
00:06:08,319 –> 00:06:12,240

00:14:54,720 –> 00:14:58,159
and control of the President and Commander in Chief, Bola
146
00:14:58,200 –> 00:15:02,159
Ahmed Tlubu has kept mums since early morning night on Monday,
147
00:15:02,240 –> 00:15:05,799
when a mag news agency, the international media outlet of
148
00:15:05,840 –> 00:15:10,320
the Islamic State West Africa Province ICEWAP, started sending and
149
00:15:10,360 –> 00:15:15,759
disseminating a photograph of Brigadier General Musa Uber in ICEWAP captivity,
150
00:15:16,200 –> 00:15:20,799
indicating untrue the brigadier general the Nigerian Army authority had
151
00:15:20,840 –> 00:15:23,799
earlier claimed on Saturday to be safe and led his
152
00:15:23,960 –> 00:15:27,120
troops back to base, a statement the army issued to
153
00:15:27,240 –> 00:15:30,840
challenge media reports that the Brigadier general was captured and
154
00:15:30,960 –> 00:15:35,080
held captive by the ICEWAP terrorists after the terrorists ambushed
155
00:15:35,080 –> 00:15:38,639
the twenty five Task Force Brigade of the Armed Forces
156
00:15:38,679 –> 00:15:43,159
of Nigeria, killing several soldiers and civilian JTF members in
157
00:15:43,240 –> 00:15:47,120
Wajeroco village near Sambi Sir Forest in Borno State on
158
00:15:47,240 –> 00:15:51,720
Friday around five PM. This hum Angle news media that
159
00:15:51,879 –> 00:15:55,600
was among the earliest news providers that reported the Icewap
160
00:15:55,639 –> 00:16:00,000
deadly attacks on Nigeria soldiers on Saturday. After being challenged
161
00:16:00,120 –> 00:16:03,799
with the denial press release issued by the Nigerian Army
162
00:16:03,879 –> 00:16:08,120
Authority that the brigadier general was not kidnapped, claiming the
163
00:16:08,159 –> 00:16:11,480
brigadier general led his men to fought through the ambush
164
00:16:11,480 –> 00:16:14,799
of the terrorists, forcing the terrorists to flew in disarray,
165
00:16:15,120 –> 00:16:18,639
hume Angle on Monday early morning published a news report
166
00:16:18,720 –> 00:16:22,279
and insisted that the brigadier general was in Icewap captivity.
167
00:16:22,639 –> 00:16:25,600
According to hume Angle, it was already in possession of
168
00:16:25,639 –> 00:16:30,080
a photograph showing the brigadier general in Icewap captivity, but
169
00:16:30,679 –> 00:16:34,759
due to its editorial policy, it would not publish the image. Soon,
170
00:16:35,159 –> 00:16:38,559
the image of the kidnap brigadier general became available to
171
00:16:38,600 –> 00:16:42,559
some media through a mag news agency publication that claimed
172
00:16:42,600 –> 00:16:47,039
that the brigadier general was executed shortly after being interrogated
173
00:16:47,120 –> 00:16:50,879
by the Icewap terrorists. The imag only presented a photo
174
00:16:50,960 –> 00:16:55,240
evidence of the brigadier general being captured, but any material
175
00:16:55,279 –> 00:16:59,200
evidence if the Brigadier General has been killed was not provided.
176
00:16:59,600 –> 00:17:03,960
Following the apparent unfortunate development in the Nigeria army community.
177
00:17:04,400 –> 00:17:08,680
Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar on Monday, in
178
00:17:08,720 –> 00:17:12,799
a statement personally signed called on President Bola Ahmed Tanubuta
179
00:17:12,839 –> 00:17:16,319
admitting competence and the President should either ask for help
180
00:17:16,440 –> 00:17:20,319
or tended a letter of resignation immediately. According to the
181
00:17:20,359 –> 00:17:25,079
former Nigeria Vice President, Atiku abu Baka, I am deeply
182
00:17:25,119 –> 00:17:28,240
saddened and extremely shocked and disturbed by news making the
183
00:17:28,319 –> 00:17:31,440
rounds of the killing of Brigadier General Musa Uber by
184
00:17:31,559 –> 00:17:34,880
terrorists and the failure of the military hierarchy to clearly
185
00:17:34,920 –> 00:17:38,279
explain how it happened or what went wrong, as initial
186
00:17:38,279 –> 00:17:42,079
official denials indicated that this was not the case. This
187
00:17:42,200 –> 00:17:45,519
for me is unequivocally a failure of political leadership, as
188
00:17:45,519 –> 00:17:49,319
the President seems only more interested in decimating the opposition
189
00:17:49,519 –> 00:17:53,119
by all means possible while forgetting his crucial role as
190
00:17:53,160 –> 00:17:57,480
commander in chief of our armed forces. General Mus’s death,
191
00:17:57,519 –> 00:17:59,640
along with the deaths of some of the troops he
192
00:17:59,720 –> 00:18:02,119
was leading, is one death to many in a bold
193
00:18:02,200 –> 00:18:06,559
terrorist resurgence. Our dear country cannot afford. I urge all
194
00:18:06,640 –> 00:18:10,000
citizens and our military leaders to take heart as even
195
00:18:10,039 –> 00:18:15,119
this season shall pass away. To mister President, the security
196
00:18:15,119 –> 00:18:18,279
of the lives of our people is your primary responsibility
197
00:18:18,319 –> 00:18:20,079
and you must live up to it or be humble
198
00:18:20,200 –> 00:18:24,039
enough to admit incompetence and either ask for help or resign.
199
00:18:24,880 –> 00:18:27,599
If I were president, I would order the military to
200
00:18:27,640 –> 00:18:31,359
occupy Borno’s State or any state under siege by bandits
201
00:18:31,440 –> 00:18:35,319
or armed groups until they clear those areas. We must
202
00:18:35,359 –> 00:18:37,640
care enough for the men and women who put their
203
00:18:37,640 –> 00:18:40,559
lives on the line for our sake. I offer my
204
00:18:40,680 –> 00:18:44,799
condolences to the Nigerian Armed Forces, the family of the bereaved,
205
00:18:44,839 –> 00:18:48,960
and indeed to all Nigerians. May this dark period pass
206
00:18:49,000 –> 00:18:53,279
over us as a nation sooner than later. Premium Times,
207
00:18:53,279 –> 00:18:57,160
in later report on Monday evening, stated that the brigade
208
00:18:57,200 –> 00:19:01,839
commander M m Uber, earlier declared by the Nigerian Army
209
00:19:02,000 –> 00:19:05,680
after fighters of the Islamic State West Africa Province is
210
00:19:05,920 –> 00:19:10,359
SWAP ambushed his team along the Dambo Abue axis in
211
00:19:10,440 –> 00:19:14,559
Borno State, has now been reported dead. The terror group
212
00:19:14,839 –> 00:19:18,759
ICEWAP has announced that it captured mister Uber and killed him.
213
00:19:19,160 –> 00:19:22,440
The group also shared photos to prove its criminal act.
214
00:19:22,880 –> 00:19:27,880
Pr Nigeria, a news platform close to security agencies, also
215
00:19:27,960 –> 00:19:31,200
confirmed that the general was kidnapped and killed after military
216
00:19:31,240 –> 00:19:35,039
authorities thought he was safe after surviving the initial ambush.
217
00:19:35,559 –> 00:19:40,039
On Sunday, citing a humangle story, Premium Times reported that
218
00:19:40,079 –> 00:19:44,119
mister Uber was kidnapped after ICEWAP terrorists ambushed his team
219
00:19:44,200 –> 00:19:49,079
alongside operatives of the Civilian Joint Task Forced CJTF on
220
00:19:49,200 –> 00:19:53,759
Friday night. The army, however, denied that he was kidnapped
221
00:19:53,799 –> 00:19:57,480
and said he was safe after soldiers successfully repelled the ambush.
222
00:19:58,240 –> 00:20:02,359
ICEWAP claims it executed mister Uber in an Arabic statement
223
00:20:02,440 –> 00:20:06,680
published in its propaganda newsletter magazine, A mack I Swap
224
00:20:06,759 –> 00:20:09,839
senate had captured mister Uber and executed him after he
225
00:20:09,960 –> 00:20:14,680
was interrogated. The twenty sixteen breakaway faction of Boco Harrim
226
00:20:14,759 –> 00:20:18,240
attached to picture collage of mister Uber showing when he
227
00:20:18,319 –> 00:20:21,559
was in office and when he was captured, a picture
228
00:20:21,599 –> 00:20:24,359
of the brigade commander from inside his office, and a
229
00:20:24,400 –> 00:20:27,480
picture of him after he was captured by the Islamic State.
230
00:20:27,839 –> 00:20:31,920
The group captured the picture Islamic State fighters over through
231
00:20:31,960 –> 00:20:35,400
a senior officer in the Nigerian Army after a successful
232
00:20:35,440 –> 00:20:39,000
ambush on a military force in Borno, the group said,
233
00:20:39,359 –> 00:20:42,480
adding that the commander was captured after he fled from
234
00:20:42,519 –> 00:20:46,599
the Wajiiko attack. ICEWAP said as soon as it received
235
00:20:46,680 –> 00:20:49,960
until that mister Uber had escaped, a unit of fighters
236
00:20:50,319 –> 00:20:53,400
set out to search for him and succeeded in capturing
237
00:20:53,440 –> 00:20:56,799
him on Saturday near a village after he was wounded.
238
00:20:57,519 –> 00:21:01,279
The purported picture of his capture shows Miss Uber’s camouflage
239
00:21:01,319 –> 00:21:05,720
stained with blood around his legs. IESWAP said it interrogated
240
00:21:05,799 –> 00:21:09,319
mister Uber before killing him on the spot. The terror
241
00:21:09,319 –> 00:21:13,440
group further taunted the Nigerian Army, describing its statement as
242
00:21:13,480 –> 00:21:18,880
an outright lion a miserable security failure. Pr Nigeria reports
243
00:21:18,920 –> 00:21:22,519
that mister Uber earlier confirmed his safety to his superiors
244
00:21:22,559 –> 00:21:26,240
after an aerial operation that helped him escape the ICEWAP attack,
245
00:21:27,000 –> 00:21:30,119
but the event took a tragic turn. Reports of his
246
00:21:30,240 –> 00:21:33,960
location compelled the terrorists to track him down, leading to
247
00:21:34,000 –> 00:21:38,039
his capture and subsequent summary execution after an interrogation. The
248
00:21:38,079 –> 00:21:43,599
platform reported mister Uber’s killings, according to experts, marked the
249
00:21:43,640 –> 00:21:46,519
first time the insurgents would kill an officer with such
250
00:21:46,559 –> 00:21:50,480
a high rank. His killing was blamed on insecure military
251
00:21:50,480 –> 00:21:56,160
communications within the Northeast Theater pr Nigeria, reported Hume Angle
252
00:21:56,240 –> 00:21:59,720
in an earliest news report on Monday morning, stated that
253
00:22:00,160 –> 00:22:04,200
the Nigerian Army’s statement that Brigadier General M. Muber the
254
00:22:04,240 –> 00:22:08,759
Brigade Commander twenty five Task Force Brigade, successfully led troops
255
00:22:08,759 –> 00:22:12,759
back to base after an ambush last Friday, November fourteenth
256
00:22:13,039 –> 00:22:17,319
in the Dambo area of Borno State, northeastern Nigeria, has
257
00:22:17,359 –> 00:22:21,559
been challenged by an exclusive, verified image obtained by Hume Angle.
258
00:22:22,279 –> 00:22:26,400
The image shows the senior officer alive but held by insurgents,
259
00:22:26,480 –> 00:22:31,319
contradicting the military’s official account. The ambush by ICEWAP fighters
260
00:22:31,359 –> 00:22:34,599
on a joint military and Civilian Joint Task Force c
261
00:22:34,880 –> 00:22:38,519
j TF convoy on View Road resulted in the deaths
262
00:22:38,519 –> 00:22:41,640
of several soldiers and c j t F members, with
263
00:22:41,759 –> 00:22:46,440
the general’s whereabouts initially reported as unknown. Hume Angle’s early
264
00:22:46,519 –> 00:22:49,519
report cited sources on the ground who said the general
265
00:22:49,599 –> 00:22:53,160
was abducted during the attack. We later reported that he
266
00:22:53,240 –> 00:22:56,559
had escaped on foot and returned to base after several
267
00:22:56,599 –> 00:23:00,920
security sources insisted on this. The nigeria An Army also
268
00:23:01,000 –> 00:23:04,799
issued a statement denying the abduction, insisting the general had
269
00:23:04,839 –> 00:23:08,480
safely led his men back too Bason that the incident
270
00:23:08,640 –> 00:23:13,559
was an ambush causing casualties but no kidnapping. However, the
271
00:23:13,640 –> 00:23:16,880
military provided no evidence to back this claim at the time.
272
00:23:17,680 –> 00:23:21,119
A verified image Humanngle has seen shows the commander in
273
00:23:21,160 –> 00:23:24,640
the custody of ICEWAP insurgents with the gunshot wound to
274
00:23:24,680 –> 00:23:30,319
the leg. Verification was carried out through detailed frame analysis, geolocation,
275
00:23:30,480 –> 00:23:35,000
cross checking, and confirmation from independent security sources familiar with
276
00:23:35,079 –> 00:23:38,799
the region and the incident. The image shortly after the
277
00:23:38,839 –> 00:23:43,519
ambush shows the general surrounded by armed fighters, appearing fatigued
278
00:23:43,559 –> 00:23:47,920
but alive. Hume Angle, in line with our editorial policies,
279
00:23:48,319 –> 00:23:51,359
has made the editorial decision not to publish the picture.
280
00:23:52,119 –> 00:23:56,720
This new evidence directly challenges the army’s public statement, highlighting
281
00:23:56,759 –> 00:24:01,400
a significant discrepancy in the information being shared about frontline realities.
282
00:24:02,200 –> 00:24:06,519
The contradictory accounts raise concerns about communication gaps within the
283
00:24:06,559 –> 00:24:10,759
military and the potential consequences of misinformation for public trust
284
00:24:10,799 –> 00:24:15,200
and operational security. The capture of a serving commander marks
285
00:24:15,240 –> 00:24:18,359
a rare and serious development in the ongoing conflict with
286
00:24:18,480 –> 00:24:23,759
insurgent groups in Nigeria’s northeast. In recent months, ICEWAP has
287
00:24:23,799 –> 00:24:28,440
intensified attacks around Damboa and the wider Borno region, escalating
288
00:24:28,480 –> 00:24:33,240
the dangers faced by both military personnel and civilians. Security
289
00:24:33,279 –> 00:24:36,559
analysts who reviewed the image described the abduction as both
290
00:24:36,599 –> 00:24:40,440
an operational setback and a symbolic blow to Nigerian forces
291
00:24:40,559 –> 00:24:45,039
fighting the insurgency. Families of soldiers deployed in the area
292
00:24:45,119 –> 00:24:49,240
have expressed frustration and anxiety over the conflicting reports about
293
00:24:49,240 –> 00:24:53,359
their loved one safety. Efforts to secure fresh comments from
294
00:24:53,400 –> 00:24:56,920
the Nigerian Army have been ongoing, but as a publication,
295
00:24:57,400 –> 00:24:59,759
no new statement has been issued addressing them.
