Residents Flee Homes As Boko Haram Attack Village Near Maiduguri

 

Barely 24 hours after the Boko Haram sect released new video claiming attack on military base in Kumshe and Gulumba areas of Borno State, another village Baleh Shuwari less than 500m from Giwa Barracks has been reportedly attacked by the insurgents forcing residents to flee for their dear lives.

 

It was gathered that the residents living in Jiddari Polo Ward in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital fled their homes to join relations in Bolori ward in the city centre.

 

The village Baleh Shuwa was reportedly set on fire, according to a Daily Post report.

 

The sad incident which happened on Saturday was the third time the insurgents would be attacking the village.

 

The first attack claimed 19 lives; while second attack left 33 people dead.

 

Meanwhile, details of the attack are still sketchy at the moment as neither the police authorities nor the Army has reacted to the development.
