Suspected to be Boko Haram / ISWAP insurgents kill 22 people at a village 4km away from Auno town in the Konduga Local Government Area of Borno State.

The attack occurred on Tuesday 20 October 2020 but the corpses were only discovered the following day,  a local farmer who preferred to remain anonymous, told RNI

The farmer says he went to his farm on Wednesday but came across the dead bodies. Some of the dead he knows as IDP farmers.

After informing security operatives the bodies were taken to an IDP camp and hospital near the village for the families to identify, he added.

Insurgents have been disturbing the area for a while, and the man expressed his hope that Government and security forces would look into the situation in order to bring an end to the menace.
