News Update: Boko Haram Burns 100 Houses In Borno Overnight by bcomputer101: 1:19am On Dec 15, 2013
At least four people were killed and more than 100
houses burnt down on Saturday when members of the
Boko Haram, attacked Arboko village behind Gwoza hills
in Borno State.
The gunmen were said to have launched the attack
around 2:30 am on Saturday and overran the villages
before dawn. The village is said to be inhabited by a tiny
Christian minority.
Executive Director, Stefanos Foundation, Mr. Mark
Lipdo, said in a text message on Saturday that cries by
the villagers for help did not yield any fruit, until they
were completely overrun by the gunmen.
He said, “Reports just coming in now around 2:30 am
says Arboko community of Gwoza, Borno state is
presently under attack. Sources said houses are now on
fire. Villages behind Gwoza hills said their plea for
soldiers to protect them has not been heeded and these
majority Christian communities have continued to come
under attack”
He added, “Latest report says four people were killed
and over 100 houses burnt in the attack.”
When our correspondent contacted the Director,
Defence Information, Brig. Gen Chris Olukolade, he said
that he had not received a situation report on the attack
and would not be in a position to confirm and deny it.
“I have not got any situation report on the attack you
are talking about and would not be in a position to
confirm or deny,” he said.

And the military just recruited another 5,890 soldiers

Could it be that they've been losing men at the war front?

This is simply a civil war from all indications.

RIP to the dead

Upon all the 98% of muslims in borno state , they are attacking the less than 2% christian settlements. Then some one will tell me that thay are not trying to wipe out christains in the north. Hausa muslims know what they are doing. Boko haram is an islamic group doing the will of islam 95% of the hausa muslims support it.

Look at this one!!!!
Boko Haram is not religious in anyway.... Ask yourself this,: if Boko Haram really is religious, why haven't they "visited" us in the South, where many of us are Christians?"
The height of your silliness is evident in your 2% Christian population talk. If only 2% of the entire population in Borno are Christians, wouldn't they all have been killed by now Aren't Hausa/Fulani and Kanuri Muslims the ones who have setup the "Civilian JTF", isn't dat something You ignorant folks will just like to show your nativity everywhere!!!!

^^^You dey mind that daft bigot.Is the blind hate that comes with such silly bunch. If anything,where was he when they attack several mosque and homes in Benishiek ,destroying houses and killing over a hundred people. People must learn to encourage people to close ranks and deal with this madness than role the ethnic or religious card at every instance.The people will need to fight this along with the military. you bring sentiments and even the civilian JTF who fight to keep the peace could be split. Can the reporter also confirm if all homes destroyed were xtian. He said its a majority xtian neighborhood.Meaning Muslims exist in minority. Were they not affected?

^^^My feelings are that this is a political as well as religious cleansing! They're trying to change the demographics of the core north with future elections in mind! I fear for the indigenous Christians in the north, especially if this country breaks.....there would be pogroms and ethnic cleansing on an unimaginable scale. These people are pure unadulterated evil, and some people saw decades ago that we're incompatible with them......with different values and outlook in life, yet others said we should remain as a country inspite of their wickedness!

It's good to bear in mind that majority of core northern muslims have nothing to do with this evil, and are powerless to do much about it; rather it's a section of their elite (Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri/Nupe/etc) in concert with foreign jihadists that are stoking this conflagration! Their ultimate goal is power and control, and they're prepared to stop at nothing in achieving it!

^^^ Do you exist in the hearts of men now? Abi they told you in a meeting you attended. This is the silly excuse that your sort and ethnocentric people like you spread that divides opinion and make people lose focus of issues at hand. Always politicizing issues and straining the bridges that bind. What is like wrong with your kind? So for the Muslims that have being attacked and killed for weeks now in Borno & Yobe are they going to vote against the north? or what is your silly excuse for them! You people are simply shameless hypocrites and damn evil than you want to be seen.
At first they were hiding them.They Muslims took action in the form of civilian JTF to show there true positions and sack the sect in there midst. They (Muslims) were killed in revenge for there actions and you simply say they deserve it. Not long ago the president requested an extension of emergency rule and he got it on the floor of both houses,thats talking of the elites.
Simply because some people believe a carrot and stick approach be applied does not in any way mean support for BH but people trying to proffer options to resolve the issues. People should learn to keep there stupid views and talk sensibly on public issues.
Last i checked the opposition was blamed.All but people who suck up to GEJ were spared from accusations of being BH sponsors.The truth is gradually coming out and every now and then facts show it is rather a cross boarder matter of global terror.Not internal as GEJ,PDP and Ltd. intend to make it look for acting the victim always.As we stand today Azazi,US and EU never shared the lies GEJ government feed certain people(secretly) in Nigeria for political gains.The government is truly divisive and your sort are its paid agent.
