DISTURBING!! Boko Haram kills Scores of UTME candidates in Borno


Socres of students travelling to write the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination in Borno State have been reportedly killed by the Boko Haram sect.
They were among several persons that lost their lives in multiple attacks unleashed by the dreaded sect in four communities.
The Senator representing Borno Central in the Senate, Zannah Ahmed, on Friday, accused the military of....
complicity in Thursday attack on part of troubled Borno State where he claimed that 210 people were killed in attacks on four towns.
The towns included Dikwa, Kala Balge, Gambulga and Gwoza.
The senator claimed that the attackers were all dressed in military uniforms and spoke English language.
This was a departure from the Hausa and Kanuri language spoken by the Boko Haram insurgents.
He even lamented that authorities of the military post in Gamboru, which purportedly received a distressed call from the people of Kala Balge avoided the town, claiming that it was not in its area of command.
The senator who said he was compelled to speak out because his people were being killed on a daily basis, added “what happened in Borno was beyond understanding.”

Culled - Punch
