Boko Haram Attack Community In Borno, Leaves Many Dead
Boko Haram insurgents attacked Konduga town in Borno state.
The town is located along the Bama-Maiduguri road.
The incident, which lasted for about two hours, is said to have occurred around 9pm on Wednesday.
As sourced from TheCable, Wanori, Kaleri and Amarwa villages are the areas in Konduga said to be affected by the attack which left more than 20 houses destroyed.
An eye witness from Wanori, identified as Mala, told TheCable that the insurgents stormed the village heavily armed.
The witness noted that apart from burning down houses, the insurgents took away foodstuff from the residents.
However, Mala said the villagers fled to the bush for safety, hence he was unable to determine the number of people killed.
The insurgents fled when they saw a fighter jet, he added.
Goni Abacha, a resident in Amarwa, said the insurgents also burned down some parts of his village.
“Many people were killed during the attack but I cannot confirm [how many people],” Abacha said.
Confirming the attack, Bello Dabbata, head of emergency response, Borno State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA), told TheCable that his team has been deployed the area to get details of the incident.
