SAD!! Boko Haram Disguised In Army Uniform, Kills 21

Not less than Twenty-one persons have been killed by men suspected to be insurgents, dressed in military camouflage, in a highway attack in Yobe State.

According to a local vigilante source, the people killed had been residing in Damaturu after fleeing their communities earlier captured by the insurgents.

But at the weekend, they undertook a trip to their communities to carry some foodstuffs from their silos because they felt that peace had returned to the place.

However, the victims who had been displaced from Lazarawa, Ngirbua, Maram and Garin Kuyama villages miscalculated as they were attacked on their way on Yobe Road.

The source claimed that the victims were intercepted and killed in Bultaram village on their way back to Damaturu.

“They opened fire on all of them, we believe they cannot be soldiers but insurgents dressed in military camouflage,” he said.

He revealed that the bodies of the victims had not been buried as their relations were awaiting clearance from the military authorities operating in the area.
