Full List Of Police Officers Killed By Boko Haram In Borno Governor Convoy

Police officers killed by Boko Haram in Borno Governor convoy have emerged.

Newsone Nigeria reports that the identities of the Officers killed by Boko Haram ambush on Saturday in Borno State have been released by Borno Police Command.

Bello Makwashi, the Commissioner of Police, listed the names of his dead personnel on Monday when Babagana Zulum, the Borno Governor, visited the Command Headquarters in Maiduguri, Borno state capital.

“During the encounter, I want to name the names of those that lost their lives and paid the supreme price,” Makwashi said.

According to the Borno CP, the affected officers are Mba Mathew, Ibrahim Muhammad, David Jarta, Jerry Joseph, John Barka, Elijah Gwarza, Eheboya Osaheinde, and Nura Aminu.

The Borno State Police Commissioner told the governor that the State Command had to break the sad news to the families of those in Maiduguri, adding that some were still on their way coming.

Wives of police officers killed speak up

Meanwhile, the wives of the dead police officers have appealed to the governor for support during the trying moment.

Mrs Effa David Jarta who spoke on behalf of the widows said they received the news of the unfortunate incident that claimed the lives of their breadwinners in utter shock, adding that “it is not easy.”

“It is God’s design for them, everybody will die but our prayer is to consider us. Let the government see us and pay all the benefits of our husbands. This is all I have to tell you.”

She thanked the governor for his visit but said: “consider us and the situation we are in.”

On his part, Borno Governor expressed deep regret about the incident which he said was the first in 18 months since he became governor.

The Borno Governor, however, assured the women of his commitment to support their livelihood efforts and the education of their children.

“I am standing before you here, I am not here to just see you and go back. God willing we shall not let you down, we shall support you.” Zulum assured.

Meanwhile, this comes a few days after Boko Haram ambushed the convoy of the state government.

The convoy ran into an ambush by Boko Haram at a spot called Korochara, which is about 2km away from the base of the Multi-National Joint Task Force on the way from Monguno to Baga.
