Deadly Boko Haram Islamist Abducts 100 Young Men In Borno #BringBackOurBoys

The deadly Boko Haram sect may have
forcefully conscripted 100 persons in Doron
Baga, a village in Borno State.

It was gathered that about 100 persons were
abducted during a Sunday attack on the
village where over 10 persons were killed.
A source, who spoke to journalists in
Maiduguri, said the insurgents attacked the
Doron Baga on Sunday evening and took
away some boys and young men.
It was gathered that 10 were killed by the
insurgents.
Some of those that fled the area that were
sighted in Maiduguri on Thursday, said they
had to flee the area because of the constant
attacks by the insurgents.
One of the displaced persons, Halima Alhaji
Adamu, said six members of Hadejia
community in Doron Baga were killed and
about 100 young men
were abducted on Sunday when the members
of the Islamic sect, Boko Haram launched an
attack on their community displacing
thousands who are now seeking refuge in
some parts of Borno and Yobe states.
She lamented that she also lost her husband
in the attack.
She claimed that the insurgents are believed
to have abducted the young men in order to
forcefully conscript them.
According to her, several other communities
within Doron Baga and around have also lost
many as well as others who were abducted
by the insurgents.
She said, “The attack was on Sunday, in my
family they killed six people, I don’t know
about the other families but the Hadaijawa
community which I belong also had 100 of
the abducted by the insurgents.”
Speaking on why she and the rest of her
family could not take advantage of the
refugee camps established in Maiduguri, she
said “we are going to our family members in
Gashua.”
“I think it is better to go and live with family
members than opting for camps. We lost
everything we have worked for, and I don’t
think the camp will be a better place for us.
With family members, we can have the
courage to face life again but the camp will
continue to make us reflect on our
predicament because there is no care as such
no focus for one to engage himself or herself
into doing something meaningful,” She
added.
