Cameroon: Cameroon records daily Boko Haram attacks along Nigeria border
Authorities in Cameroon say Boko Haram terrorists have been launching daily attacks on villages along the Nigeria border, killing at least 30 people and injuring scores in the past few months.
Cattle rancher Lamsi Guidjo, 55 years old and speaking through an interpreter, asked for temporary housing at the central Mosque in the town of Mora, on Cameroon’s northern border with Nigeria.
He said Boko Haram militants attacked his ranch in Werwack village on Tuesday and it is not safe for him to return.
Guidjo was told by villagers that Boko Haram killed five people in the attack.
The governor of Cameroon’s far north region, Midjiyawa Bakary, said the attack on Werwack was just one among a hundred they have recorded in the past three months.
