No fewer than three civilian vigilantes on their way to fight Boko Haram in Borno State have been killed, while seven others were injured.
DAILY POST learnt that their vehicle hit a landmine, leading to the death of the victims.
It was gathered that the vigilantes from Chul village in Borno State were moving on Monday evening to confront the militants, who had stormed the neighbouring village of Huyum when the incident occurred.
“We lost three of our colleagues to a roadside bomb yesterday evening on their way to repel Boko Haram in Huyum,” a member of the group who gave his name as Adamu Galadima told AFP in the town of Askira Uba.
“The vigilantes were approaching Huyum, which was under Boko Haram attack, when the front tyre of their vehicle hit a bomb planted by the attackers”, said Galadima, who attended the victims’ funerals.
