Many people were feared killed as gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram members attacked Danga, a community close to the hometown of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) in Adamawa State in the early hours of yesterday.

Danga village, in Hong local government area of Adamawa State, came under heavy attack on Wednesday according to an eyewitness who was among those who escaped the attack.

According to eyewitnesses, one of the communitys civilian guards who attempted to repel the insurgents was among those killed during the attack.

Fearing that the marauders will get to their community, many residents in Graha have started fleeing their homes for safe havens in villages nearby.
