Boko-Haram strikes again!!!!!

    Suspected members of the Boko Haram sect are believed to have gunned down almost two dozen locals in Zamfara state on their way home from a weekly market in Katsina state. Some of the bodies were totally incinerated, shocking residents and officials in the community. The traders killed were mostly from Birnin magaji village and the attack happened close to Shamussalle in Zamfara state.

A top security source who pleaded for anonymity confirmed the event to SaharaReporters. “They killed them and also burnt them, we are in the hospital now and it is just unfortunate. We are trailing them in the bush. (The killers) did not demand for a penny from them, which mean they are not armed robbers. They just opened fire on (the villagers) and killed them and also burnt them to ashes.”

Apart from shooting at all sides of the vehicle carrying over twenty locals, the gunmen burnt the whole persons to death along with their belongings, according to the official.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Information, Malam Ibrahim Mohammed was in tears when contacted by SaharaReporters. The victims are said to have hailed from his same town. One of his associates at the hospital confirmed the incident.

State Governor Alhaji Abdulaziz Yari is said to be travelling abroad, and all calls are being put through to Deputy Governor Ibrahim Wakkala Muhammad, who is now acting for the governor. Calls were not returned regarding the killings.
