The Nigerian Army has released the names and photographs of the soldiers killed on Thursday in Delta State. The army released the details in a post on its official X handle on Monday evening.

Military authorities earlier said soldiers were killed while on a mission to maintain peace between two warring communities: Okuama and Okoloba. Previous statements by military authorities and President Bola Tinubu indicated that 16 soldiers were killed but the army released the names and photos of 17 slain soldiers.

Military authorities announced the killing of the soldiers on Saturday. On Sunday morning, many houses in Okuama community were razed, allegedly by retaliating soldiers. It is not clear how many people died in that incident as many residents of the community had reportedly fled to a neighbouring community for fear of retaliation by soldiers.

The military, however, denied on Monday that soldiers carried out the retaliatory attacks.
