Boko Haram terrorists have burned down about 60 houses in three Adamawa State villages, reports say.

The affected villages are Sabon Gari, Kafin Hausa and Dutse Biyu in the Madagali Local Government Area of the state, according to Punch.

This was disclosed on Sunday, September 27, 2015, by a local hunter who said that the terrorists, who were fleeing from soldiers, also took away foodstuffs and other valuables from the villages.

“They left everything at the mercy of the insurgents who went on rampage, burning down many houses in these villages without any challenge from any quarter,” another source, Ibrahim Abu, told Punch.
