been placed on red alert following intelligence report that
Boko Haram insurgents had regrouped in Gwoza, Borno State,
with the intent to launch an attack.
The Nation, quoting a military source said the insurgents had
been “massing up in Gwoza with intent to strike”.
“We have placed troops on red alert. We are also sending
reinforcement as I speak with you. We are taking pre-emptive
measures to avert a repeat of what happened in Gamboru
during the week”, the source added.
It would be recalled that the insurgents had attacked
Gamboru, a border town on Monday leaving at least 100
villagers dead.
Meanwhile, father of two of the abducted school girls, the
Rev. Enoch Mark, has expressed his despair and anger at the
military for not yet finding his daughters.
“For a good 11 days, our daughters were sitting in one place”,
he told The Associated Press.
“They camped them near Chibok not more than 30 kilometres,
and no help in hand. For a good 11 days”, Rev. Mark lamented.
