Senator Ali Ndume has raised alarm over renewed Boko Haram attacks in Borno State, revealing that over 300 people, including 100 soldiers, have been killed in 252 incidents within six months.
Speaking in Abuja, Ndume said the security crisis prompted Governor Babagana Zulum to lead a delegation, including lawmakers, to meet with the military high command. He disclosed that three local governments—Gudumbari, Marte, and Abadam—are now under Boko Haram control.
Ndume stressed that despite being overstretched, the military has neutralized over 800 terrorists, but more support is urgently needed to contain the insurgency.
