News: Boko Haram reportedly abducts 8 more girls in fresh attack

According to a Vanguard report, Boko Haram men on Sunday May 4th, abducted 8 girls, ages 12-15 from Warabe village in Gwoza LGA of Borno state after an attack in the village, which is  about 160 kilometres from Maiduguri the state capital.

 

According to an eyewitness, Mallam Bello Umar who spoke with Vanguard, the men carted away food and other items during the attack.  

"A group of terrorists invaded Warabe village on Sunday night, abducted 8 of our teenage girls before carting away with our foodstuffs and livestock. As I am talking to you know, I have ran to Gwoza council headquarters, and even in Gwoza, we are restricted around the council secretariat due to the fear of the terrorists. The situation is so pathetic as almost all Gwoza people including villagers who came for safety are only restricted in a safer zone close to the council secretariat where there is enough presence of security personnel”, Bello said.
