Local Borno village Women Destroy Boko Haram Attackers In Their Villages.
Category: Boko Haram News
We killed them because Boko Haram members hardly reveal any secrets when arrested.
Local women in the villages of Attagara and Kawuri in Borno State
disarmed 10 Boko Haram terrorists who tried to attack their communities
over the weekend resulting in the lynching of seven of the insurgents.
As part of its ongoing reign of terror, Boko Haram tried to spread its
operations to Attagara and Kawuri villages in Gwoza and Bama Local
Government Areas of Borno State. However, they were resisted by a group
of women using local charms among other things and were disarmed.
After the women repelled the attacks, they then raised the alarm and
the rest of the community rallied round to apprehend the insurgents.
Three of the terrorists fled but seven were arrested and lynched by an
irate mob.
One resident said the attackers invaded the village
yesterday on motorcycles but ran into the women and wanted to hit them
with sticks but when they raised the sticks, their hands refused to
descend.
The women then notified the local vigilante group, which rushed
to the scene, disarmed the seven insurgents and lynched them.
According to the resident: “Three of the insurgents fled but seven were not lucky as the women alerted the people.”
Attagara, a border community with Cameroon is about 10 kilometres
southeast of Pulka District in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno
State and about 130 kilometres from Maiduguri, the state capital. Of
late, local people across Borno state have stepped up the fightback
against Boko Haram, having borne the brunt of its brutal terrorist
campaign.
Scores of gunmen suspected to be members of Boko Haram
were killed yesterday through the combined efforts of members of the
vigilante youths, otherwise known as the Civilian Joint Task Force and
the military in Kawuri village in Bama Local Government Area of Borno
State. Mamman Yakubu, a vigilante youth that participated in repelling
the insurgents, said they lynched the terrorists because Boko Haram
members hardly reveal any secrets when arrested.
One top security
source, who confirmed the incident, said that three dead bodies of the
terrorists were recovered yesterday morning in Kawuri. He added that
more of the terrorists were killed in a nearby bus, close to Kawuri when
they attempted to flee to the Sambisa Forest.
