BORNO: Residents flee as Boko Haram terrorists invade villages in nine vans

FOUR villages in the southern part of Borno State have been reportedly deserted by their residents following attack by Boko Haram terrorists last night.

It was learnt that the insurgents rode in at least 9 Toyota Hilux vans, and they were first seen around Mandara Dirau at about 1pm.

The insurgents were said to have proceeded unchallenged through parts of villages identified as Debiro, Tashan Alade, Tirgitu, and Shaffa town shooting repeatedly, looting food items, and setting houses ablaze.

Villages attacked are situated within Hawul and Shaffa local government areas of the state.

Many villagers were said to have escaped being attacked by hiding in nearby mountains.

But the old and the sick were feared to be stuck in the mayhem.

Some of the villagers in Borno State were said to have resorted to storing their harvested food in rented stores following spate of attacks from Boko terrorists.

There are reports that some residents of the villages attacked had a hint that the terrorists might invade them as they have been living in perpetual fear. 

Meanwhile, the lawmaker representing Gombi Constituency, in the state House of Assembly, Japhet Kefas, has asked the military to halt a second attack being planned by Boko Haram on Garkida.
