SAD NEWS: Boko Haram Attacks And Killed 80 Christians In Chibok As Nigerian Soldiers Ran Into The Bush

Boko Haram Jihadi sect attacked 3

churches in Chibok Area of Borno state

killing several worshippers.

“The attackers went to churches with

bombs and guns,” Timothy James, a

Chibok resident said by phone.

“From what I gathered, dozens of

worshippers, including men, women and

children were killed,” he said, explaining

that his information had come from

people who fled the affected area and

through phone calls.

Enoch Mark, an outspoken Chibok

leader since the April 14 kidnappings,

gave a similar account, telling AFP in

Lagos, “presently, as we are talking

now, we are under attack”.

“I was told the attackers burnt at least

three churches to the ground.”

Mark further said that the military had

not responded to distress calls after

the attack began.

“They just went and got a hiding place in

the bush,” he told AFP.

While it was not immediately possible to

verify the charge, if true, it would likely

raise further questions about the

military effort in the northeast, the

epicentre of Boko Haram’s five-year

deadly uprising.

A military source said this evening that

over 80 people were killed in the attack.
