President Tinubu has assured Nigerians that the k+llers of 16 soldiers in Okuama community will not go unpunished.

On Saturday morning, the Nigerian people and I woke up to the dreadful news of the unprovoked k. lling of our brave military personnel during a rescue mission in Okuama Community in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State.

The incident occurred on Thursday, March 14, 2024, when our troops, responding to a cri is between Okuama and Okoloba communities in Delta State, were ambushed. A Commanding Officer, two Majors, one Captain, and twelve soldiers sadly lost their lives. One civilian was also k lled.

As the Commander-in-Chief, I join all well-meaning Nigerians and the men and women of our armed forces to mourn and express my profound grief over the needless de th of our gallant soldiers. extend my profound condolences to the families of these fallensoldiers, their colleagues, and their loved ones. The military high command is already responding to this incident. The cowardly offenders responsible for this heinous crime will not go
