Members of the dreaded Islamic sect yet again struck in the remote village of Nguro-Soye in Borno state on Thursday,
bombing a market place and killing 17 people in the wake of the
attack. The news of the attack is just coming to light now because the
sect members first destroyed all telecoms facilities in that area
before embarking on their mission.
Police Chief Lawan
Tanko confirmed the incident to AFP "An explosion in the market in
Nguro-Soye killed 17 people. The attack on Nguro-Soye, as in previous
attacks, is the handiwork of Boko Haram insurgents" he said.
Meanwhile
the Borno State Government has ordered all schools to be shut down
indefinitely until the tense situation as a result of the sect attack
has been adequately addressed.
