GUNMEN suspected to be members of Boko Haram Saturday attacked seven hilly communities in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State and killed about 15 people. They attacked the areas with Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and petrol-bombs, torching many houses and carting away food items and livestock.
.
Though details of the exact number of people and houses destroyed in the multiple attacks are sketchy, an anonymous community leader of Kunde, said that 15 people were killed by the armed terrorists, when they overran six other communities of Gathahure, Hwa'a, Tihezeh, Hrazah, Hembe and Gjigga on the Mandara Hills, that stretch for 16 kilometres, east of Gwoza, the council headquarters.
.
This came as members of the Joint Task Force (JTF) smashed a Boko Haram hideout in Fune Local Council of Yobe State and recovered arms and ammunition used by the sect.

That's how dangerous the group is so we have to be extremely careful all the time in this country. God help us!
