The grief in  Chibok community over the abduction of over 200 girls since April  was on Friday compounded with yet another reported attack by the suspected Boko Haram terrorists.

The insurgents were believed to have been fleeing from Mubi and Maiha after being displaced  by the combined fire power  of local hunters and the Nigerian Army.

It is not clear how many people are affected from the latest attack but reports indicate that many residents have run out of the town for fear being attacked.

Mr. Apogu Afaramai, one of the residents who escaped to the bush narrated how he took to his heels as the insurgents stormed the town at about 10.00pm Thursday  night. He was however not sure of the casualties.

“As I am speaking to you now I am in the bush moving towards Biu town. Though I don’t know whether they killed anybody or not because when we heard gunshot we just fled the area and there was no network service,” he narrated.

Another resident who identified himself as Suleiman disclosed that the insurgents arrived the town and started shooting sporadically to scare of everyone in the city who were about to sleep.

” We were about sleeping when we started hearing sound of ceaseless gunshots and shouts of Allah is great in Arabic. The shooting was so intense. I cant even explain how I escaped from that village.”

The  Senator representing the area, Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume confirmed the latest  incident to newsmen but was equally not sure of the number of casualties.

“Yes I was told that Boko Haram terrorists attacked Chibok town but I cannot tell whether there is casualty or not, as we are yet to receive call from those in Chibok since the insurgents have burnt down the telecom- masts in the town,” Sen. Ndume said.
