Ten killed as gunmen open fire in Adamawa church, market
A group of gunmen Sunday stormed a village in Adamawa on the border with Cameroon killing 10 residents in attacks on a church and a market, police said.
The gunmen opened fire on a market square in Njilang village in Adamawa state, killing six people before storming a local church in the same village where they killed four worshippers, Mohammed Ibrahim, the state police spokesman, told AFP.
“Unknown gunmen went into the village this morning and attacked a market square where they killed six people and then proceeded to a church where they shot dead four others,” Ibrahim said.
Nine people were wounded in the attacks in the small farming village, 230 kilometres (145 miles) from the state capital Yola, Ibrahim said.
