Some gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram insurgents invaded villages of Kawuri and Fori in Konduga Local Government Area of Borno State, killing 10 residents including three civilian JTF of the areas.
Kawuri is one of the big villages in Konduga council situated along the Maiduguri-Bama highway which is about 60 kilometres away from the capital city of Maiduguri and 20 kilometres to Bama town, an area which witnessed series of attacks and killings of both civilians and security personnel.
A woman passenger who simply gave her name as Madam Hauwa Musa told our correspondent that she was among the early passengers from Mubi town in Adamawa State to Maiduguri a day after the attack in Kawuri village.
“Yes I was among the passengers that boarded a taxi from Mubi to Maiduguri and when we reached the villages along the main road, we saw some buildings being consumed by fire with the presence of security operatives and men of the vigilante youths group popularly known as civilian JTF,” she said.
The gunmen also succeeded in setting ablaze some residential houses and public building such as clinic and a primary school.
