At least 59 people had been killed in northeastern Nigeria in an attack carried out by a Terrorist group. The Gunmen had entered Gubio District of Borno state on Tuesday afternoon and fired at innocent villagers. The whole village had been totally destroyed.
AFP reported that 59 dead bodies had been recovered while Reuters reported the death toll as 69. Still, no group has taken over the responsibility for the incident.
It is suspected that the motive of the killing should be the suspicion that the villagers are giving information about the movements of terrorists operating there to Security.
