Suspected Boko Haram Gunmen Kill 30 In Adamawa
30 persons, including a bridegroom, family members and friends were
killed yesterday in an attack by gunmen suspected to be members of the
Boko Haram sect in Michika local government area of Adamawa State.
Eyewitnesses said the victims were returning from a wedding Fatiha in
Michika town when they ran into an ambush laid by the insurgents along
Bama-Banki-Firgi highway.
One of the eye witnesses, a motorist in Maiduguri, Borno State
capital, said “I travelled on Adamawa-Michika–Bama-Maiduguri road. When
we reached a place in the Firgi area, we saw many bodies many of which
were riddled with bullets while some were covered in blood having been
slaughtered beside the road. My passengers advised we should return to
Michika, but I told them God was in control”.
A source in one of the federal owned hospitals in Maiduguri told
Vanguard; “We have received the bodies of over 30 people suspected to
have been killed while coming from a wedding Fatiha as most of them wore
same wedding uniforms (Anko in Hausa) on Saturday evening, but we are
are yet to ascertain who are those behind such a deadly attack”.
