Numerous people are feared dead and many others reportedly sustained various degrees of wounds when Boko Haram insurgents attacked a community in Askira Uba Local Government Area of Borno State Sunday afternoon.
It was gathered that the insurgents stormed Kilangal village, the hometown of Engr Abdullahi Musa Askira, the Deputy Speaker of Borno State House of Assembly where the terrorists set houses ablaze.
The Air Task Force fighter jet was said to have arrived about two hours later but the damage had been done.
