Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara has narrated how the Boko Haram insurgents killed his first cousin, a Divisional Police Office, DPO, serving in Borno State in one of their deadly attacks.
The lawmaker made the shocking disclosure when he visited the Wassa Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, resettlement camp at the outskirts of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja.
The items donated by the Speaker to the four IDP camps in the FCT were 250 bags of rice, 550 bags of maize, 600 bags of millet, 80 cartons of sugar, 250 bags of beans, 100 Jerry cans of vegetable oil, 100 bags of salt, 200 cartons of Indomie Noodles, 700 pieces of Super wax print and 700 pieces of Guinea Brocade.
Speaking after the donation, Dogara said it would be irresponsible of the government to allow them go home while there was still attacks in the area.
