terrorists in a fierce battle in Bama, Borno
state
Following the Boko Haram conquest of
Gwoza in Borno, a group of terrorists are
said to have invaded the Bama area of the
state.
However, their attack has been countered by
officers of the Nigerian army who have put up a
fierce resistance.
Residents of the community said that the
insurgents arrived the area early this morning and
began an onslaught with their weaponry.
Many of the villagers are said to have fled Bama
to avoid being caught up in the battle.
