Hundreds of the Boko Haram fighters,
who had been dislodged from their camps in northern and central parts of
Borno State, have regrouped on the mountains that lie between Adamawa,
Borno and the Republic of Cameroon in southern part of the state, have
killed some people and sacked communities, locals and security sources
said.
Locals living on Mandara Mountains
and Gwoza hills near Nigeria’s border with Cameroon said suspected Boko
Haram assailants had between Thursday and Friday appeared with
sophisticated weapons and sacked many villages, including Kunde, Hwa’a,
Gathahure and Gjigga.
Mountain dwellers Tada Garuta, Samuel
Pwa said Garuta said apart from killing retired Reverend Jacob Kwiza of
the Church of Christ in Nigeria (COCIN) in Hwa’a, the attackers also
carted away livestock and grains in all the villages they visited.
They said in separate attacks, the district heads of Kurana Bassa and Damboa were also killed by the gunmen.
Garuta said the principal of Government Day Secondary School, Izge was also trailed and killed.
It was gathered that the insurgents
attacked the villages with guns and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs),
burnt four churches and killed a retired pastor. Mountain dwellers who
escaped to safer locations said despite the grounding of mobile
communication (GSM) in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states, the Boko Haram
fighters had during their operations used mobile phones and reached out
to their colleagues.
Getting confirmation from the Joint
Task Force (JTF) in Maiduguri is very difficult in recent times because
of absence of GSM services.
