Boko Haram killed five traders in an ambush on a highway in northeast Nigeria that was recently reopened after coming under repeated attack from the Islamist group, a military source said Wednesday.

A convoy of vehicles carrying Nigerian immigration officials and a group of traders were travelling from Gamboru, on the border with Cameroon, to the city of Maiduguri when they came under fire on Monday.
"Three (immigration) officers were hit and injured in the fire exchange. The immigration men drove off towards Maiduguri, leaving the traders behind," an army officer told AFP on condition of anonymity.

The five traders had joined the official convoy thinking it would be a safer way to reach the Borno state capital than travelling the notorious road alone.
The traders' two trucks were looted and set alight, Gamboru resident Umar Ari told AFP by phone, also confirming the toll of five dead.

The Gamboru to Maiduguri highway is a strategic 140-kilometre (87-mile) trade route in the region, and provides an important link with neighbouring Cameroon.
The highway was closed for safety reasons at the height of the Boko Haram unrest some two years ago, but was reopened by the Nigerian authorities following a string of successes against the militants.

"Since the Maiduguri-Gamboru highway was reopened two months ago convoys of trucks carrying goods and other vehicles conveying traders have been coming to Gamboru under military escort without any incident," said resident Ari.
Boko Haram, which seeks to impose strict Islamic law in northern Nigeria, has been blamed for some 20,000 deaths and displacing more than 2.6 million people since 2009.

A counter-offensive spearheaded by Nigeria since January last year has recaptured swathes of territory lost to the Islamist militants in 2014.
But sporadic attacks continue and security remains a major concern in the region.

they are Igbos, big mouth and little sense but always the last to know it. same reason why they boxed their self into a corner where they can never be president of this country which even a buffoon from a minority tribe has ruled.
tell me how an attack on a highway shows any strength of BH? if BH have strength they should show us 1 office address they have, Nigeria army has hundreds of known addresses and the coward BH cant come and dislodge the army rather they attack traders on some lonely highway and run back into the bush to the applause of only the Igbos. shame!

It is already not well with you, your family and your generations yet unborn, so I will only pray that you continue in your penury. The ineffectual buffoon and his gang of thieves created Boko Haram, nurtured it and promoted it by sharing and stealing all the money budgeted for arms and ammunition. These people need not be cursed by Nigerians again because they and their generations are already cursed.

Let's take our minds off this dasuki gate of a thing for a moment.
Have u ever tried to understand why soldiers opened fire on GOC's vehicle in Maiduguri?
There's a lot more sabotage to the fight against boko haram than just dasuki gate issue

Pained to read about people dying like fowls because they are made pawns in political chessboard. When are we going to find a lasting solution to this menace? Why all the lies? Why give false information and push people to early grave? Do we need help from foreign military forces that are outside of what are neighbouring countries provide? Could these our neighbours be sabotaging our efforts at ridding our territory of these miscreants? Why do we appear to be too soft on these guys and even reward some of them caught? Omg! So many questions. Just don't know again ooo
