According to VOA Hausa, no fewer than 30 Boko Haram fighters were killed
as a result of internal fighting among the sect members in Madagali LGA
Adamawa state. The disagreement started when majority of the sect
members decided that they will abandon the senseless killings and
surrender all their weapons to the Army and plead for mercy. Angered by
this development, the other members accused the first group of betrayal
and in the process tempers were flared and guns corked. Serious exchange
of gunfire occurred between the group that wants to repent and the
other faction that wants to continue their jihad. In the end up to 30 Boko Haram
members were killed. Now the group is split into 2 in Madagali. Reports
indicate that there is scarcity of fuel which are needed for their cars
as a result of the current blockade of Michika-Madagali axis by the
Nigerian Army which is causing a lot of apprehension among Boko Haram boys as
they will have no cars to flee if the military enters those areas.
