“When you come to Shagari Low-cost in the evening, you will see many prostitutes and youths from different parts of Maiduguri engaging in all sorts of anti-social activities. It is no longer news that people are being attacked on daily basis,” he said.

Kabiru Musa, another resident appealed to governor Babagana Zulum to “come to our aid as we can no longer sleep with our two eyes closed.

“The reality is that day in day out, we are being attacked, we are being killed. Our houses are being robbed.

“The other day, a lady who was intoxicated wiyh psychotropic substances was murdered in a hotel after being raped by unknown individuals,” he added.
