Suspected Islamic militants on Thursday night attacked Damboa town,Borno State killingat least 11 people. Witnesses said gunmen shot civilians and police in Damboa, about 85km from the state capital, Maiduguri. The group was blamed for the deaths of 44 people in a mosque in the nearby town of Konduga last Sunday. Local official Ayamu Lawan Gwasha said security forces repelled gunmen who attacked the police station and amilitary post in Damboa. Farmer Mustapha Aji said other militantsgunned down civilians and firebombed about 20 homes. Hetold the Associated Press that residents had feared an attack following the deaths in Kondugaand had asked for more security, but it hadn’t yet arrived.Another witness, student Adamu Isah, blamed theattack on Boko Haram fighters. Details of the attack have been slow to emerge because of a communications blackout imposed by the military. In May, Nigeria declared an emergency in Adamawa,Borno and Yobe states in order to battle the militants. On Wednesday the army said it had killed Boko Haram’s second-incommand Momodu Bama, also known by his alias “Abu Saad”. However, there has been no independent confirmation of his death and Boko Haram has not commented on the statement.
