They said the Islamists hacked their victims to death and left another farmer with severe injuries.

“They came in large numbers on foot while we were picking cowpea in the field and arrested six of us while others escaped,” Mala Umara told AFP.

“They macheted four to death before my eyes and left the other man seriously injured,” he said.

A civilian militia leader in the city, Babakura Kolo confirmed the killings.

Umara, 75, was spared by the militants with a message to Nigerian troops stationed in Jiddari-Polo that they should brace for an impending attack from the jihadists.
