Residents are fleeing Michika and Madagali areas in Adamawa state, after Boko Haram insurgents razed several villages, and killed scores of people.

Hundreds of villagers from the affected villages as well as neighbouring ones are currently fleeing their homes to Gulak, Mubi and other towns.

Boko Haram reportedly destroyed property in  Kuda-Kaya village in a Saturday night attack that culminated in fierce battle with local vigilantes.

This is coming after series of similar attacks on several villages along the Adamawa-Borno border.

The chairman of Chibok Parents Association, Yakubu Nkenke, said one person died when Boko Haram burnt Gatamarwa village in Chibok area on Thursday.

Last Wednesday, a Madagali village, Hantsa, also came under attack in which one person was said to have been shot dead by the armed militants.
