Boko Haram Kills 25 In Adamawa - CNN by DickDastardly(m): 6:28pm On Jul 25, 2015
Gunmen storm villages on motorcycles.

Kano, Nigeria (CNN)A bloody and terrifying raid by Boko Haram on Friday left at least 25 people dead in three villages in eastern Nigeria's Adamawa state, according to residents and a local government official. Adamawa state borders Borno state, Boko Haram's birth place and main stronghold.

Storming in on motorcycles, the gunmen attacked the neighboring villages of Kopa, Maikadire and Yaffa around 9 a.m. local time, shooting and killing residents, according to witnesses and local government chairman Maina Ularamu.

Gunmen are former village residents
The gunmen are former residents who joined Boko Haram and left to live in Boko Haram camps, according to Ularamu and the village residents. After the Nigerian military launched a campaign of bombing raids and ground assaults on their camps, those Boko Haram militants sought to escape by returning to their villages.

Villagers tipped off military authorities and the returnees were arrested.

Friday's attacks were retaliation against those villages, according to witnesses and the government chairman.

Boko Haram
Founded 12 years ago by charismatic cleric, Mohammed Yusuf, Boko Haram calls for a pure Islamic state in Nigeria. Yusuf was killed by police in 2009 and many say his death made Boko Haram even more violent and defiant.

Abubakar Shekau took control of the group and ramped up the attacks. Murders and kidnappings of Westerners became a Boko Haram signature. Under Shekau the group also began a bombing campaign that targets churches, mosques and government buildings.

Boko Haram translates to "Western education is a sin" in the local Hausa language. The militant group says it wants stricter enforcement of Sharia law across Nigeria, which is split between a majority Muslim north and a mostly Christian south.

Boko Haram's attacks have escalated in recent years in an apparent effort to destroy the Nigerian government.

What was the reason why Buhari went to the U.S.A to visit OBAMA ?? Terrorism was created by the U.S government, they supplied arms to ISIS & AL Qeada to fight their corrupt president but they used the arms in killing innocent people & fighting for islamic state.

When the U.S realized their mistakes, they went to Afghanistan & Iraq to fight the terrorists they sponsored, What happened to the AMERICAN ARMY ?? THEY WERE ALL KILLED & HUMILIATED. Obama had to withdraw his foolish troops.

What happened during Goodluck Jonathan's government ?? The U.S government refused to sell arms to Nigeria, but Russian sold to Nigeria & the Boko haram were eliminated.

And our president BUHARI went to visit the very president that refused to help us thinking they can fight Boko Haram, i promise you if the American Army eventually comes to Nigeria to Fight Boko Haram they will all be killed, The U.S ARMY IS VERY WEAK

Buhari is planning to prosecute soldiers for boko haram human right violation, whatever that means. He wonders why the troops will not put their life on the line for a dullard like him.
