 Ndume Clarifies Misrepresented Claim as Buratai Denies Attack in Borno


Senator Ali Ndume, representing Borno South, has clarified that his recent comments about an alleged attack on former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai (retd), were misinterpreted. Ndume’s statement, made during a Sunday interview, was misconstrued to suggest that Buratai, who shares his name with Buratai town in Biu Local Government Area, was personally targeted by insurgents.


In the interview, Ndume raised alarms about worsening insecurity in Borno State, stating, “We are in a dire security situation. Just two days ago, Buratai was attacked at the front operations base in Borno. Some soldiers responded gallantly, but the insurgents managed to destroy several military assets.” The comment was mistakenly interpreted as an attack on the former army chief, who served as Nigeria’s Chief of Army Staff from 2015 to 2021 and played a key role in the country’s counterinsurgency efforts.


On Monday, Ndume clarified that he was referring to an attack on a military base in Buratai town, not on the person of Lt. Gen. Buratai. The former army chief, who hails from the same town, also denied any personal attack, confirming that no such incident occurred involving him.


The clarification comes amid heightened concerns over escalating insurgent activities in Borno State, with Ndume emphasizing the urgent need to address the region’s security challenges.
