A custom officer was said to have been killed by unknown gunmen at Ngomboru Ngala local government, just as gunmen also killed two in Gwoza local GOVERNMENT area, both of Borno state.
Mallam Yahay Isa in a telephone chat with Daily Post said they did not see the killings of the two traders in Gwoza as the usual attacks by the Islamist sects but attacks from some common criminals.
“We did not want to say this is like all the recent attacks, because from what we were told, it looks like it is an armed robbery attack. Although, death is death but at least we could point to something as being responsible. In Gwoza as you are aware, we have lost many people to this senseless killings. We are still wondering why people just kill people. We accept everything the way they are, and pray God to give us the strength to bear all the pains.”
Also speaking on the killing of a Custom officer, a resident of Ngomboru told DailyPost that, “Killing people is no longer news to us. They kill almost everyday. We are only living by the day,holding our fate in our hands.
“I also learnt that they killed a Custom officer whose wife works with one of the broadcasting houses.” He said
Unfortunately, when DailyPost called the number of the Custom public relations officer, Mr. Makeri Pius, his wife who answered the call said he was late.
