Boko Haram militants invaded two villages in Borno state. No fewer than
four people were killed , and they reportedly packed away food items, as well as
livestock.
Yohanna Musa, a resident from one of the villages was quoted
as saying , "The attackers fired at the people, and many residents fled
into the bush. There was confusion everywhere as the attackers set fire on
several houses. They continued their attack for about two hours. They carted
away foodstuffs, bags of grain, and chicken, belonging to our poor people,"
.
A security source told SaharaReporters, based on reports
from the residents of the two communities, the insurgents were all, "very
armed, though not as many as they usually (have been) in moves in previous
attacks."
The source also said
that government troops around the area did not get the alert of the double
attack on both villages in time.
