Boko Haram kills two, razes churches in Borno village
|
[DAILYPOST.NG] No fewer than two people were feared dead on Wednesday when a group of Death Eaters suspected to be Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
sect members invaded Whitambaya village of Hawul Local Government Area of Borno State.
The gunnies also razed down two churches including the Church of Brethren in Nigeria, popularly known as E.Y.N church, as well as residential houses, mostly belonging to Christians.
Whitambaya is a hilly community located at the off shores of River Hawul, and some few kilometers South-East of Haul council area, which has been under series of deadly Boko Haram attacks in the last one month.
It would be recalled that the Caretaker Chairman of Hawul, Dr. Andrew Usman Malgwi complained of lack of military presence in his Council, which is predominantly Christian dominated.
A Pastor of Living Faith Church, Pastor Eluid Gwamna Mshelizza and other 19 residents of Shaffa town were in the recent past slaughtered, and over 6 churches razed down in the same location.
An eye witness, Mallam Shaibu Isa, told DailyPost that the gunnies came into the village from Pelachiroma and Dzur villages, which were suspected to have terrorists' camps in the last one year.
Isa stated that, "a combined group of gunnies, in 18 buses, stormed our community at about 3pm on Wednesday, chanting Allahu Akbar (God is Great) and set ablaze two churches, three residential houses belonging to Christian faithfuls before they killed two persons.
"The gunnies had a field day looting some shops and houses; As I am talking to you now, we have lost two of our people, while the other person, who sustained gunshot wounds has been referred to Biu general hospital for treatment", he explained.
Confirming the incident, the Chairman of Hawul Council Area, Dr. Andrew Usman Malgwi said, "yes, one of my villages came under attack by Boko Haram sect. I was told that they burnt down two churches and other residential buildings after shooting at some innocent civilians.
