Boko Haram Killed at Least 69 People and Stole Their Cattle
Boko Haram gunman killed at least 69 people and razed a village to the ground in northern Nigeria’s Borno state on Tuesday afternoon. The men attacked the village of Faduma Koloram, in Gubio local government area of Borno state, starting about noon. They arrived in vehicles and on motorcycles, shooting with AK-47s, razing the village and stealing 1,200 cattle and camels. A resident, a Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) member and a soldier each confirmed the same account. They said the men attacked because they suspected residents of sharing information on Boko Haram’s movements with security authorities. “It’s an unfortunate day for us to witness this,” said CJTF fighter Kachallah Bumu. While he said the residents were armed, and had repelled previous attacks, this one caught them off guard. “They took us unaware and killed our people,” he said. A military spokesman could not be reached for comment. Boko Haram and its offshoot, Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), have killed thousands and displaced millions in northeastern Nigeria. |

Re: Boko Haram Killed at Least 69 People and Stole Their Cattle
Yeah, I was wondering about that. they mentioned the livestock, but I am pretty sure it is common knowledge that boko haram will capture the young girls to be forced into sex slavery, and the young boys are taken to be turned into soldiers or just murdered. I didn't notice any children among the dead. you know bogus harem probably took them. |

Re: Boko Haram Killed at Least 69 People and Stole Their Cattle
Gun control fail, law-abiding citizens in Nigeria are limited to shotguns which are pretty well useless beyond 50-75 yards while an AK fired for accuracy (semi auto, aimed fire) is easily effective at 300 yards which on open ground like that is vitally important. If the villagers had even a few obsolete mausers or enfields they could have at least put up a token defense rather than getting shot like fish in a barrel while the villains likely got away unscathed. |
