Boko Haram kills Pastor, Teacher, 17 others in Borno state

Pastor Eliud Gwamna Mshelizza of the Living Faith Church, a teacher with the
Government Girls Secondary School Shaffa alongside 17 others were killed in
separate attacks on Wednesday September 24th and Thursday September 25th
after Boko Haram members launched an attack on Shaffa and Shindiffu villages
of Hawul LGA in Borno State.
The sect men were said to have arrived Shaffa at about 8pm on Wednesday
September 24th and after ravaging the village, proceeded to Shindiffu village
on Thursday September 25th. They burnt down about 10 churches including
E.Y.N No:I, E.Y.N No: II and III in both villages. Many of the sect members
were however killed by Nigerian troops who came in from Adamawa and Biu
during an ambush as the Boko Haram men were leaving the villages after the
attack.
