Terrorists Kill 48 In Borno

According to reports, Boko Haram terrorists have killed 48 people in Borno State.

The attack occurred on Friday, November 21, in Doron Baga near the border with Chad and the casualties were a group of fish vendors.

According to eyewitnesses, some of the villagers had their throats slit while others were shot.

Head of the Fish traders association, Abubakar Gamandi told AFP:

“Scores of Boko Haram fighters blocked a route linking Nigeria with Chad near the fishing village of Doron Baga on the shores of Lake Chad on Thursday and killed a group of 48 fish traders on their way to Chad to buy fish.”

This comes as President Goodluck Jonathan told a meeting of Nigeria's Honorary International Investment Council (HIIC) in London that the war against Boko Haram is being won in the country.
