No fewer than 45 people were killed by Boko
Haram members in an attack on Azaya Kura
village in the Mafa local government area of
Borno state on Wednesday November 19th.
According to residents of the village who fled to
Maiduguri the state capital for safety, the sect
members arrived their village at about 12noon
on motorcycles, shooting anyone in sight
“So far, 45 men have been killed and there
are others that died in the bushes as a
result of bleeding from bullet wounds,”
said one resident
Confirming the attack, the caretaker of Mafa
Local Government area, Shettima Lawan
described it as wicked and appealed to the
federal government to act fast in helping them
"How can some people be so wicked to kill
innocent people, 45 people at once
without any confrontation? There is no
compulsion in religion and I am still
searching for the motive behind mass
killing and destruction by some people
under the guise of entrenching certain
religion. I wish to appeal to the Federal
Government to take urgent steps and
rescue our people from imminent
extinction.” he said
