Insurgents opened fireplace with laptop weapons and rocket-propelled grenades, in an strive to damage Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State.

Will the return coverage stand? Zulum was once on an evaluation tour near the town of Baga on the shores of Lake Chad, a place of Nigeria, recognised for being the bastion of terrorists for the ultimate decade.

Despite the insurgency nevertheless going strong, Zulum has insisted on Internally Displaced People returning to their villages from which they fled because of firefights.
