Boko Republic: B’Haram seizes more towns, now in Adamawa
« on: September 08, 2014, 07:55:30 AM »
The outlawed Islamist sect, Boko Haram, on Sunday continued its expansionist drive by overrunning Michika and Uba in Adamawa   State.

The capture of the two communities brings to 13, the number of communities now controlled by the sect in the North East. The others are Gwoza, Buni Yadi, Gamboru Ngala, Damboa, Marte, Bama, Bara, Banki, Gulak, Dikwa and Madagali.

News of the capture of Michika and Uba coincided with lamentation on Sunday by the Secretary to the Borno State Government, Amb. Baba Jidda,   that most parts of Borno State had been taken over by Boko Haram.

A security source told The PUNCH that the sect which took over Gulak on Friday night, moved from there to Uba.

He added that when the soldiers on guard saw the insurgents arriving in over 50 pick -up vans and hundreds of motorcycles, they retreated because they were outnumbered.
