The insurgents stormed the bases with heavy gunfire and explosives, overrunning some locations and destroying military vehicles. Local sources said the attack began around 1 a.m., with several officers including the brigade commander, his second‑in‑command, and the brigade Imam confirmed dead.
President Bola Tinubu publicly mourned Braimah and the fallen troops, praising their courage and describing the assault as a sign of insurgent desperation amid ongoing military offensives.
Defence Headquarters acknowledged the attack and confirmed casualties, noting that troops fought back with “exceptional courage” before the insurgents retreated.
