Insurgents in Nigeria’s north-east have attacked yet another military base in Borno State, killing, wounding and displacing soldiers.
The Nigerian Army has not issued a statement on the attack. A spokesperson, Sagir Musa, did not immediately return calls seeking comments Wednesday morning. The military contacts spoke under anonymity because the military top brass had not authorised disclosure of the attack to the media. The farmers had complained that the curfew hitherto in place was obstructing their farming activities because it required them to stop working on their farm before 4:00 p.m. Several residents were reported to have been arrested because they sometimes stayed beyond the 4:00 p.m. in their farms.
It was not immediately clear whether or not the relaxed measures created a loophole which the insurgents exploited to strike on Sunday.
Good for them. They won't fight Boko Haram but can go about intimidating innocent citizens
Enu Gbe for the boko boys be that, they need some basuka and bullets.
