The Boko Haram sect on Sunday
ambushed commercial motorists on a
Borno State highway, killing four persons,
injuring three others and kidnapping two, a
member of the youth vigilance group said
on Sunday.
A youth vigilance member, Ali Ngulde,
disclosed this while speaking with our
correspondent, adding that the notorious
militants ambushed commercial motorists
at a remote village, Nwajurko, near Sabon
Gari in Damboa Local Government Area.
Ngulde said, ”Boko Haram, in a highway
ambush, killed four persons, abducted two,
and injured three others on the Maiduguri-
Damboa-Biu highway.”
A source at Biu General Hospital, who spoke
on condition of anonymity to our
correspondent, said three persons were
brought to the hospital and they were in a
critical condition as a result of serious
gunshot injuries.
Sabon Gari village is located in the southern
part of Borno State. It is about 125
kilometres away from Maiduguri, the Borno
State capital.
