NIGERIA (Borno)—Pandemonium erupted again yesterday as members of the Boko Haram lauched separate attacks in Baga and Izge villages of Kukawa and Gwoza Local Government Areas of Borno State, killing no fewer than 100 people.

It was gathered that the Baga attack claimed 10 lives, while the Izge massacre at the Cameroon border with Borno State yesterday morning also claimed 90 lives.

Sources disclosed that gunmen numbering over 100 invaded Baga village at about 7pm with sophisticated weapons, including Improvised Explosive Devices, IED’s, and wreaked havoc on innocent citizens before fleeing without being arrested.

According to an eye witness, the gunmen arrived in Toyota Hilux and several other vehicles and motorcycles while dressed in military camouflage, chanting Allahu Akbar (God is great) and shot at anyone on sight before setting houses ablaze.

“As I am talking to you now, all the dead bodies are still lying on the streets as we can’t get the opportunity of burying them because of fear that the terrorists were still around in the nearby bushes of Izge.

“I thank God for sparing my life yesterday, because I thought my days in this world were over when we started hearing sounds of gunshots and explosions all over Izge in the night. God really had mercy on me. We ran into the bush without being hurt by the insurgents, although, I lost all my belongings,’’ he added.

Speaking about the incident, the Borno State Police Commissioner, Lawal Tanko, confirmed the incident .

He said he has already directed the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in-charge of the area to feed him back with details.
