[DAILYPOST.NG] No fewer than nine persons were on Wednesday reportedly slaughtered along Maiduguri-Damboa-Biu road by suspected members of the 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...
, DailyPost learnt.
The faceless myrmidons were said to have attacked a passenger bus and a car, close to Bulabulin Ngaura village of Damboa Local Government Area.
Supporters of the All Progressive Congress, APC, from Biu Local Government council, who were on their way to Biu, made a u-turn.
They reported that lifeless bodies of nine passengers were seen lying by the road side.
According to them, "the road is not good, we have to turn back because we saw and counted nine dead bodies and there was nobody around there, so we were afraid to continue our journey to Biu".
It would be recalled that, there have been series of attacks along Maiduguri-Damboa-Biu road since last week. w
The latest was on Monday when two lorries carrying oranges were attacked and the passengers kidnapped.
As at the time of filling this report, there is no official confirmation of Wednesday's attack from either the military or the police but a lot of passengers traveling to Biu had to postpone their trip.
