Residents of Gamboru in Borno State told the Governor of the State, Kashim Shettima that Boko Haram attacked them with Armoured Personnel Carriers (APC).

Gamboru where over 300 people were killed last Monday is a commercial town bordering Cameroun with Nigeria – the insurgents also burnt down the market.

Shettima visited the residents and commiserated with the bereaved families.

He also promised to assist the traders to return to business. “If a trader lost goods worth N100 or even N10 million, we will try our best to augment with the little resources at our disposal. We may not be able to meet all your expectations at this trying time, but I assure you we will do our best.”

The governor urged all and sundry to join hands in rebuilding Gamboru that the task should not be left to the government alone.

He said all should work together to restore the town’s commercial strength which had given it an international status.
