BOKO HARAM Invades Army General’s Residence, Kills One

Gunmen suspected to be members of Boko Haram sect on Tuesday invaded the residence of the Commander Joint Task Force (JTF), Niger Delta, Major General Tukur Buratai at Buratai District in Biu Local Government Area of Borno state.

He killed one security personnel on guard and injured others.

Another group of terrorists invaded Bama Council Area of the state, which led to a heavy exchange of gunfire between them and security operatives.

The Bama incident is coming barely an hour ago when Governor Kashim Shettima with his convoy passed through the town at about 8 pm on Tuesday on his way to Maiduguri where he had gone to Madagali, the headquarters of Gulak Local Government Area of Adamawa state, to sympathize with the victims of Izghe who are now taking refuge at the Council.

The attacks claimed over 150 lives last Saturday.
