JUST IN: Boko Haram attack another Chibok village

Following multiple attacks by Boko Haram terrorists in the Southern Borno Senatorial District, particularly in Damboa and Chibok, which resulted in the deaths of dozens and the destruction of churches and residential houses in Bamzir, Njilang, Shikarkir, and other communities, a fresh attack was reported in Yimirmugza village of Chibok.

An investigation has revealed that most of the 40 victims who were killed in Dumba riverine community of Baga, Kukawa local government area in Borno state, were dry season farmers from Gwoza local government area of Southern Borno Senatorial District, which is now witnessing a series of deadly Boko Haram attacks and looting of hard-earned agricultural produce by peasant and resilient farmers.
