Among those killed was the pastor of a local church.
Limankara, which is a border community
between Borno and Adamawa, was said to be a safe haven for residents of
Gwoza in Borno, who fled from the ongoing military onslaught on members
of Boko Haram. It is a Mobile Police training base.
The refugees were said to be waiting for the dust in Gwoza to settle down before going back to their homes.
Though the report could not be confirmed
because telephone services were cut in the three North-eastern states
of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, the Executive Director of Stefanos
Foundation, Mr. Mark Lipdo, said he heard about the incident from an
authoritative source.
Lipdo said, “Reports say that Limankara
community, at the Borno/Adamawa border, was attacked by men of Boko
Haram yesterday (Thursday). Sources said there were people killed,
including a pastor.”
