Boko Haram Continues to Kill, Attacks Another Borno Village, Many Feared Dead

Jakana Village in Kaga Local Government Area of Borno State was on Monday night attacked by gunmen believed to be members of the Boko Haram.

The Monday night attack in Jakana occurs about 24 hours after at least 32 people were killed by the Boko Haram in Mafa Village.

Mafa Village was also set ablaze by the terrorists in an attack that residents said lasted about 5 hours. More than 200 people have been killed in the last two weeks in the northern states by Boko Haram insurgents. Without pity, this gunmen carrying AK47 rifles, Rocket Propelled Launchers, Improvised Explosive Devices and petrol bombs, invaded Jakana village in Konduga LGA, Borno State around 7pm on Monday March 3rd.

It was gathered that the attack, which started at about 8 p.m. lasted over five hours; a development that left many wondering why it took security officials so long to arrive the village which is just about 45km away.
