Boko Haram abducts 8 girls in another Borno attack
No fewer than 8 teenage girls between the ages of 12 to 15
have been abducted by suspected Boko Haram terrorists in
Warabe village of Gwoza Local government area of Borno
state.
The gunmen also carted away foodstuff and livestocks
belonging to the villagers before fleeing into the bush.
Gwoza is about 160 kilometres from Maiduguri the state
capital. The council had witnessed series of attacks by
terrorists in recent times.
A resident of Warabe village, Mallam Bello Umar in a
telephone chat confirmed the incident, pointing out that he
was a resident of the village before he ran and settled in
Gwoza following the increasing cases of Boko Haram
attacks in Warabe and other neighbouring villages in
Gwoza council area.

” A group of terrorists invaded Warabe village on Sunday
night, abducted 8 of our teenage girls before carting away
with our foodstuffs and livestock.
“As I am talking to you know, I have ran to Gwoza council
headquarters, and even in Gwoza, we are restricted around
the council secretariat due to the fear of the terrorists. The
situation is so pathetic as almost all Gwoza people
including villagers who came for safety are only restricted
in a safer zone close to the council secretariat where there
is enough presence of security personnel”, Bello said.
