Baga, a town in northern Borno State on the Nigerian border with Chad Republic, is famous for its economic potentials in trading in stock fishes, which are produced, processed and transported to places both within and outside the country.
But last week, the town made news headlines as a result of the massacre of about 200 people following a clash between soldiers attached to the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) and Boko Haram insurgents.
The mayhem turned the place into a ghost town after the residents fled to find shelter in neighbouring communities. Weekly Trust visited the community on Wednesday and Thursday and observed that the people of the community are yet to recover from the shock.
