About eleven farmers have been killed by Boko Haram terrorists in border communities around the Mandara Mountains in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State within the past seven days
At least fifteen others have also been kidnapped while some others sustained injuries from attacks by the terrorists.
While confirming the attacks, Senator Ali Ndume says the terrorists also burnt two military vehicles in an ambush along the Kirawa border community of the state.
“There is a renewed attack by Boko Haram in our region. Unfortunately, Gwoza is one of the local governments that was most hit after the bomb blast some two months ago,” Ndume who is a former chairman of the Senate Committee on Army said.
“Just last week, Boko Haram ambushed farmers or attacked farmers while harvesting their crops killed eight of them in Ngoshe, and captured or kidnapped but five people up to now, and one person sustained injuries.”
