At least 20 persons were killed yesterday, while 10 others were injured when gunmen suspected to be members of the Boko Haram group launched an attack on Logomani village in Dikwa Local Government Area of Borno State.

Soldiers were said to have later pursued the insurgents into the forest around Ngamboru Ngala. It was learnt that the attackers, dressed in military uniforms, also left with some of the women and also collected money from some of the truck drivers in the area.

A passenger who narrowly escaped death, told newsmen that the attackers shot the passengers and slaughtered 14 people before someone alerted them that soldiers were coming. They fled on their motorcycles into the bush.
