Suspected Boko Harama terrorists have k!lled three people and burnt down the palace of the District Head of Kirawa town in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State.
It was gathered that the latest incident happened when the terrorists infiltrated the community bordering Cameroon on Monday night, September 29, 2025.
The attack came barely three days after the insurgents ambushed the civilian JTF members escorting passengers on Kirawa -Pulka road, k!lled one and set ablaze six commercial vehicles.
According to Daily Trust, the terrorists k!lled two civilians, and another one was abducted by the assailants.
Many people have fled to Cameroon, for fear of another attack.
The insurgents also burnt other buildings in the community.
“In fact, we are all afraid that the town is no longer secure because the Cameroonian soldiers protecting us have left,” said a source identified simply as Ibrahim.
Senator Mohammed Ndume, (APC, Borno South) confirmed the attack, saying the community, which resettled recently, have witnessed renewed attacks.
“The attacks on Kirawa and other communities have become a source of concern. Many resilient IDPs, supported by Governor Zulum, have returned to their ancestral homes,” he said.
He commended the efforts of Nigerian troops in the fight against insurgency, and appealed for establishment of military “platoons” in vulnerable communities.
He also called on the federal government to fortify the military with drones and attack helicopters to reinforce the attack pattern of the military.
