At least 81 people were killed in an attack on a village by suspected Boko Haram militants in northeast Nigeria, the Borno state government said in a statement released to CNN.
Residents said the men attacked the village in armored tanks and trucks filled with guns, according to the government's statement. Seven people, including the village head, children and women, were abducted from the Faduma Kolomdi community, described as a nomadic town in northern Borno. Residents reported that the men gathered the villagers on Tuesday morning and started shooting in the incident which lasted several hours.
A large number of troops have also been sent to the area to bolster the military's response to the attack, the army said. "The Nigerian Army is committed to investigating the circumstances of these callous attacks by desperate Boko Haram criminals and the bandits on innocent civilians," Musa said.The villagers accounts were corroborated by former district head Zanna Gubio who told CNN he transported some of the victims to the hospital with his vehicle.
