52 Killed by boko haram in Borno
– Over 50 gunmen, yesterday, invaded Kawuri District of Konduga Local
Government Area of Borno state and set ablaze over 300 residential
houses, after killing a soldier, 51 civilians and wounded several
policemen.
Residents who sustained injuries during the attack are
now receiving treatment at the Konduga General Hospital and the
University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital.
Kawuri District is one
of the big towns in Konduga,on Maiduguri-Bama Expressway, which is about
60 kilometres from Maiduguri, the state capital.
This is the
second the town is witnessing terror attacks. The first was in October
last year, when Boko Haram terrorists clashed with vigilante youth,
popularly known as civilian JTF, which led to the killing of 10 people
including three members of the Civilian JTF, with 18 others injured and
the burning of 48 shops and 200 houses.
Vanguard
gathered that the fresh attack on Kawuri town took place at about 5pm,
Sunday, when gunmen with AK47 rifles, Improvised Explosive Devices and
petrol bombs entered the community and wreaked havoc before they fled
into the Sambisa forest.
A survivor, Mallam Mustapha Modu said, he
counted about 47 dead bodies on Monday morning while several others
sustained gunshots and burnt wounds.
It would be recalled that in
the last one week, 37 communities of Kwaljiri, Kaya, Ngawo Fate,
Limanti, Njaba, Yahuri, Mude, Wala and Alau among others in Damboa,
Konduga and Gwoza Council areas have all been sacked by terrorists
living displaced residents taking refuge in neighbouring villages in
Cameroon Republic and other towns, including Maiduguri.
