18 Borno Villages Under Boko Haram’s Control, Listed by Lawmakers

About 18 villages in Borno State are firmly under the control of Boko Haram insurgents despite a recent ceasefire allegedly agreed to by the sect and the federal government. Speaking at yesterday’s plenary in the House of Representatives, Hon. Isa Lawan, stated that “Northern Borno axis is falling into the hands of Boko Haram on daily basis.” Lawan, who represents Guzamala, Kukawa, Mobbar and Abadam federal constituency in Borno State, urged the House to pass a motion calling on the federal government to rescue the seized territories.
