Damasak, the northeast zone of the country yet experienced another hit by the insurgency known as Boko Haram. The place have witnessed yet another increase in toll of dead bodies littering around this week. The sate government have put the death toll at 100 but, according to one of the sources who helped in burying the dead in shallow graves the death toll is not less than anything 500 people found all around the community. And dead bodies are littered within the premises and inside the houses of the deceased. Northeast Nigeria has been relentlessly targeted throughout the
jihadists' six-year uprising but there had been a lull in violence in
recent weeks as claimed by the combined troops from Nigeria and Chad.
