ABUJA (AFP) – Suspected members of Islamist extremist group Boko
Haram have attacked a village in Borno, killing at least 35 people and
wounding 14, the military said on Friday.
“Boko Haram people
attacked the village on the ground that they have refused to cooperate
with them, that they refused their message,” defence spokesman Brigadier
General Chris Olukolade told AFP of the incident in Dumba. “The report
that was presented has it that 35 people were killed and 14 wounded.”
The
attack occurred on Monday, but the information had not become public
until Friday with phone lines cut in the region and the village located
in a remote area
