The attack on the village occurred after the terrorists had failed to enter Maiduguri. The AFP in a report quoted a woman from the village, whose name was given as Kyallu as saying that four of her children were among the victims of the attack.
“They killed four of my grown-up children when they attacked our village about the time for the morning prayers,” Kyallu, who escaped to Maiduguri said.
“They shot my children dead without any provocation. I had to leave the village with my grandchildren because we have lost our houses,” she said.
“The insurgents also killed our village head. In fact, I counted 15 dead bodies,” she said. Boko Haram attacks have intensified in recent months as the February elections draw closer. The terrorists have killed tens of thousands since their campaign of violence started in 2009.
