When you tell them over and over that don't ever negotiate with Boko Haram to free the the Chibok girls; that Boko Haram would want to swap the girls for the arrested commanders and once the arrested Boko Haram commanders are freed, they will reorganized and become more deadly than before. The arrested commanders are the brains of Boko Haram.
Unfortunately, they did not listen and went ahead to swap the Boko commanders for the girls, in order to please the parents, the public and the world and now two prominent Nigerian troop commanders and their troops are killed in ambush by Boko Haram in a span of a week, after the negotiation, the release and the celebration. They are even planning to exchange more commanders for the remaining girls.
They will never listen and they will never learn.

A senior Nigerian soldier was on Tuesday killed by the Boko Haram, army sources told PREMIUM TIMES.
B.U. Umar, a lieutenant colonel and commanding officer of 114 TF battalion of the Nigerian Army was ambushed by 9. 30 am Tuesday alongside his troops on Tuesday morning between Bita and Piridang.
"His vehicle stepped on an improvised explosive device, but he was not hurt," a source told PREMIUM TIMES.
"He came out to assess the damage on the vehicle and Boko Haram opened fire and killed him in the process."
Eight other soldiers were injured and evacuated to Michika, Adamawa State, for treatment.
The soldiers were said to be on their way to Yola in Adamawa State from Bita in Borno State when the incident occurred, sources said.
The full casualty from the attack is not yet clear.
Mr. Umar, who recently took over the command of the 114 battalion about three weeks ago, was a member of the 48 Regular Course in the Nigeria Defence Academy, NDA.
When contacted, the Army spokesperson, Sani Usman, said he was unaware of Mr. Umar's death. He said he would seek further confirmation from appropriate authorities.
The killing of Mr. Umar occurs about a week after another Lieutenant Colonel, Muhammed Abu-Ali, and his troops were killed in another ambush by Boko Haram.
Fourteen Boko Haram insurgents and four other soldiers died in that attack, the army said.
The attacks by the Boko Haram have continued despite ongoing negotiation with the federal government. The negotiations already led to the release of 21 of the over 200 Chibok girls kidnapped by the sect in 2014.
