A Nigerian soldier, Abdullahi Bhuwa Usman, has been killed by Boko Haram terrorists in Borno State, Njenje Media News reports.
The newly-wed Usman was among soldiers killed when the insurgents and the military had a four-hour battle to take control of Dikwa.
A family member told SaharaReporters;
“I received the news of Usman’s death with deep shock. He just got married on December 27, 2020. I attended the wedding here in Lagos.”
“Though he wasn’t in attendance physically because he was on duty, his family members and friends were all here and left with the wife to Borno State that same day. “
“I still spoke with him last week and told him to take care of his wife; it’s just so sad. He was so jovial and caring,”
