Outrage over video of killed Nigerian soldiers

The public uproar has been caused by a video going viral on social media that purports to show the bodies of soldiers who were allegedly shot dead by militants in southeast Nigeria.

The graphic footage showed crowds of people gathered around what appeared to be a security vehicle with the word "army" written on both sides. It appeared to have been shot after an attack.

While two more dead were found inside the automobile in a pool of blood, two others were found laying separately on the ground.

The video is undated, and its source is unknown.

The army and the police have not yet released a statement regarding the incident.

However, the military attack has been denounced by the governor of Anambra state.

In the state on Wednesday, four military and a civilian were slain, according to local media.

People have expressed their concern and rage over the state's constant attacks by militant groups, which primarily target security services, public officials, and facilities used by the general public.
