Curfew In Borno Village As ISWAP Terrorists Kill DPO by ogododo: 8:52am On May 22
Residents of New Marte are now under curfew after a Superintendent of Police was killed by suspected Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) terrorists in the Marte LGA, Borno State, on Monday night.

It was gathered that the ISWAP fighters sneaked into New Marte and ambushed the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) and his team, resulting in the officer’s death.

A security source revealed that the attackers initially targeted one Dr Adamu Fatai in New Marte.

“Upon noticing suspicious movement, Dr Fatai ran to the police station to alert the DPO. The police mobilised to counter the threat, but the ISWAP fighters shot the DPO and injured others around 2am while residents were asleep.

“They trekked into the town without any vehicles or motorcycles,” the source said.

The injured policemen were taken to Maiduguri General Hospital along with the body of the DPO, SP Pius Sunday Swanta.

ISWAP terrorists had also attacked New Marte a week earlier, killing the head of the civilian Joint Task Force in the area.

Following the DPO’s death, residents said troops ordered them to remain indoors, accusing them of collaborating with ISWAP.


“The soldiers accused us of being collaborators with ISWAP. They imposed a curfew and warned that anyone who ventured outside would be killed. They intend to conduct house-to-house searches,” a resident, who does not want to be named, said.

The residents expressed their distress, saying that the DPO had defended them for the past two years and appealed to Governor Babagana Zulum for help.

The Borno Police command spokesman, ASP Nahum Kenneth Daso, confirmed the incident and stated that the authorities are working to determine the circumstances of the attack.

"The soldiers accused us of being collaborators with ISWAP. They imposed a curfew and warned that anyone who ventured outside would be killed. They intend to conduct house-to-house searches."

Tinubu has lost control of the USELESS Military. They act like cultists and MURDER civilians with glee.

Instead of hunting and facing ACTUAL terrorists with guns, they'd rather lock down and terrorise unarmed civilians under the guise of "investigation".

They act like Rambo when it's time to INTIMIDATE civilians and weep like BITCHES at first contact with terrorists.

People who should speak out for defenseless Nigerians being killed day in day out by terrorists have their mouths shut but if it is Palestine or gaza they will be making noise about going to ICC.
Suddenly human lives in Nigeria have turned to tissue paper.

There's hardly a week that ends without terrorists and bandits killing people in Nigeria, but Nigerian netizens are more worried about what happens in the Middle East and Ukraine than their domain. Does it mean Nigerian lives are worthless?

Why are the soldiers planning house to house searching? They burnt houses in Okuama because it is south south. But now that it is north, they remembered there is something called searching.
