Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari and Borno State Governor Babagana Umara Zulum are mourning the death of Brigadier General Dzarma Zirkusu by ISWAP militants on Saturday.

The president said he was "deeply saddened" by the news of the death of the general and three other soldiers who were ambushed by gunmen in Askira Uba, Borno State.

 "I am not happy about the death of General Dzarma Zirkusu and the three soldiers who sacrificed their lives. Nigeria has lost its courage. I commend their efforts. May God have mercy on them," Buhari said in a statement from his palace.

On the other hand, Governor Zulum also offered his condolences to the Nigerian Army, thanking all the troops for what he called their "commitment to Nigeria".

Nigerian soldiers have been killed in an ambush by ISWAP militants on their base in Askira Uba.

The military killed several militants and destroyed their weapons in the fighting, according to a report by the Nigerian military.

Kanu Lawyer Has Been Barred From Entering Court Five Times

A lawyer who came from the United States to defend Nnamdi Kanu said it was the fifth time he had been barred from entering court by security forces on Wednesday. Mr Bruce Fein alleges that he was the only DSS officer trying to prevent him from participating in the case. "I am his foreign lawyer and despite assurances that the accused can see all his lawyers but this is the fifth time I have been barred from entering his (Kanu's) presence," he said. Speaking to reporters shortly after the adjournment, the team of lawyers threatened to change the court because they felt their client would not be treated fairly. "Based on what we saw today, we do not think this court will do us justice, so we will draw from what we saw today," said one of the lawyers. The Judge, Binta Nyako adjourned the case to January 19th and 20, 2022.
