The soldiers were attacked while on advance to notorious bandit leader’s camp known as Dangote at Shimfida. 

“Troops were advancing on foot when bandits began engaging them from the hill,” a military source said.

Kastina State has experienced series of attacks with over 300 deaths this year alone usually by bandits.

In less than one week, there have been mass exodus of soldiers from the military as more than 356 Nigerian soldiers voluntarily reigned, citing loss of interest.

How many more will resign any time soon?
