The Nigerian Army on Wednesday buried Brigadier General Oseni Braimah, Captain Ismail, and other soldiers killed in a recent attack by insurgents in Borno State.

The officers and men were laid to rest at the Maimalari Cantonment Cemetery in Maiduguri with full military honours.

The fallen soldiers were killed on April 9 when suspected Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province fighters launched coordinated attacks on military positions in Benisheikh, a strategic town in Kaga Local Government Area along the Maiduguri-Damaturu highway.

In a statement posted on its official Facebook handle, the Army described the burial ceremony as solemn and emotionally charged.

“In a solemn and emotionally charged ceremony, the nation on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, laid to rest late Brigadier General Omo Braimah, Captain Ismail, and other gallant soldiers who paid the supreme price in the line of duty.

“The burial, held at the Maimalari Cantonment Cemetery in Maiduguri, Borno State, was marked by deep sorrow, honour, and reflection,” the statement read.

It added that the fallen soldiers were accorded full military honours in recognition of their service and sacrifice.

“Their sacrifice serves as a poignant reminder of the heavy price paid daily by members of the Armed Forces to safeguard the peace, unity, and security of Nigeria,” it said.

Among those in attendance were Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum, the Chief of Defence Staff, Christopher Musa, and other senior military officers.

They described the deceased as patriots who paid the ultimate price in defence of the nation.

Prayers were offered for the repose of their souls, while citations detailing their service were read before their families.

The Army noted that the grief of the families underscored the human cost of the country’s security efforts, even as their courage remains a source of national pride.
