Suspected Boko Haram terrorists on Saturday killed two vigilantes and 10 firewood fetchers in Bokko Ghide community, Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State.

Confirming the incident, the Emir of Gwoza, Mohammed Timta, said the vigilantes (civilian JTF) were ambushed and killed by the assailants along kirawa road under Pulka District.

According to him, the 10 other victims were those who went into the bush in search of firewood.

He said “They went to a nearby bush in search of firewood on Saturday when the boys (insurgents) ambushed them and killed ten and left 2 with life-threatening injuries.

“We buried the 10 and evacuated the injured victims to Maiduguri for medical attention.

“It’s very sad that two of my Civilian JTF , who sacrificed their lives for my people, were also killed on Friday,” he said.

He prayed to God to reward their sacrifices and grant them Janatul Firdaus, and give their family and the community the fortitude to bear the loss.


The monarch also commended the state government and the military for their relentless effort in dealing with the Boko Haram insurgency.

“They have been doing their best in managing the crisis for over a decade. We also want the military to deploy technological warfare like drones and other sophisticated weapons to end the crisis,” he said.

He noted that the rainy season is about to set in and the spike in attacks has already demoralized people in the area.

“People are now scared to visit their farmlands, and it’s time for land preparation ahead of the rain proper,” he said.

Meanwhile, residents in the area confirmed to PUNCH that the attack has sent fear across the town

” This really shocked us. I know about three people among those killed. It has been a sad day,” a resident of Gwoza, Ali Audu said.

He, however, called for swift security deployment to prevent further attacks on people in the community.

Then Tinubu's government is complicit and the security chiefs thieves are cashing out blood money

Another Grieving for some, Another cashout for others

I can't imagine how much we've lost economically to this unending war against insurgency

If it were in the south they would over run the place with the army full of Northerners.

The Northern elders created BH to jeopardize Southern President.

Religious bigots

Dem no dey ever finish for this borno?

They will soon repent and contest for governorship election after they might have done their useless rehabilitation. Nigeria has gone to the vulture

Someone should tell Tinubu to resign before northern population reduces to 20.


Tinubu has nothing to offer Nigeria

They forget, the sword is a two edged weapon. It can turn either way.

Nigerian government are treating this boy's with kid glove's. Well their actions is like telling the federal government to divide the country for them to rule. As it was done to South East let it be done to all northern state's that Boko haram thrives. Enough of this security tribalism. May the blood of the departed destroyed them, may the departed through the mercy of the creator reincarnate soon and their soul's rest.

Hunters they are, not boko haram

Picture speaks

They operate with full of the Nigerian Government. All these soldiers being sent to fight BH are just used to make international bodies think that their donations and anti terrorism funding is being used to do what it was given for.

Where is NEF to declare war on insurgent on this continuous killings. hypocrites
