 Welcome once again to the breakfast. Now, let's go back in history to this day, the 4th of October in 2017. A sad day, of course, in Niger, but it doesn't just concern the Niger Republic. It also concerns the United States, because it was on this day that there was something called the Tungo Tungo ambush, where Islamic state militants had ambushed a group of Nigerian and U.S. military officers and, of course, a letter to the killing of five Nigerians and four U.S. soldiers. At least 21 ISG militants were also killed and eight Nigerians and two U.S. soldiers included in the team commander were wounded. In the day preceding the ambush, the Nigerian and U.S. soldiers conducted a mission attempting to locate and capture or kill Dundu Shefu, who was a commander of the Islamic state of West Africa, basically, one of those terrorist groups. The ambush sparked political debates over the presence of U.S. forces in Africa, which, of course, has been on the, well, has been in whispers. Not very many people knew that they were in that part of the world. And, of course, it remained also one of the largest loss of American lives in combat in Africa since 1993 in a battle in Mogadishu. If you've seen the movie Black Hawk Down, then you should know what I'm talking about. A number of American soldiers that lost their lives in Somalia in 1993. After that, of course, this story is the largest number of American lives, American soldiers that have been lost in battle in Africa. The team leader and the four Nigerian soldiers continued their flanking movement until they were spotted or whether they were stopped by a body of water while they were being chased, at which point they identified and engaged their enemy across the water, killing approximately four combatants. But, of course, they still didn't stop the killing of these Nigerian and U.S. soldiers. The militants, according to a reporter, arrived with a dozen technical and about 20 motorcycles and were equipped with small arms. The vehicles were mounted with heavy machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades, grenades rather, and mortars. And, of course, eventually dealt a huge blow to the U.S. Army who were stationed in Niger, and, of course, the Nigerian soldiers. So this happened in Niger Republic on this day in 2017. It's called the Tungo Tungo Ambush. Stay with us. Our first major conversation today comes up next. Southeast Governors are meeting over insecurity, what discussions must be had with the Southeast Governors' traditional leadership and Arnais Zendigo. That comes up right after the short break.
