Boko Haram Slaughters 10 Ibadan Foodstuff Sellers In Borno

 

Less than two months after four members of Ibadan Foodstuff Sellers Association were killed by gunmen in Borno State, another set of traders, number about 10, were allegedly killed by gunmen said to be members of the dreaded Islamic sect, Boko Haram...

Consequently, the president of the association, Alhaji Musliudeen Olalekan Azeez, has called on the Federal Government to save their members from incessant attacks and untimely deaths.

Azeez, speaking with journalists at the Bodija Market, on Monday, said they learnt that their members, 10 of them, were among the over 60 people killed by people suspected to be Boko Haram members.

Eight of those allegedly killed were said to be traders at Bodija Market, while two others were from Orita-merin Market, also in Ibadan.

Confirming the report, the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the market, Mr Akeem Emiola, said the sad news was relayed to them on Friday through a telephone conversation by one of their customers, adding that “since then, we have been making contact with the families of the deceased.”
