BAGA ON MY MIND, THE RAMPAGE CONTINUES : Boko Haram Kills 10 In Adamawa Church, Market .. Sahara Reporters


By SaharaReporters, New York
A security source in Adamawa State has just phoned SaharaReporters that suspected members of the militant Islamist sect, Boko Haram, attacked a church and a market at a town bordering the Republic of Cameroon. The source disclosed that ten people lost their lives in the attacks.
Our source said the suspected Boko Haram militants struck in Gila, a small town located in Maiha local government area of Adamawa State. The village, which is close to the border with Cameroon, is about 30 kilometers from Maiha, the headquarters of the local government council.
The security source stated that a few heavily armed men opened fire in a market in the town, killing six persons. Soon after, they reportedly attacked worshipers at a church called EYN Church. They gunned four worshipers to death, leaving more than ten with varying gunshot wounds. The assailants then fled across the border into Cameroon, said our source.
The Adamawa State Police Command confirmed the attacks at the church and the market. The command’s spokesman, Mohammed Ibrahim, said the wounded had been rushed to a nearby hospital.
