Suspected Ambazonia separatist group from Cameroon have invaded Takum Local Government Area of Taraba State, northern Nigeria, killing a Traditional Ruler and burning down an entire village.
The attack which happened in Manga Community, was revealed by Senate Deputy Minority Leader, Emmanuel Bwacha during plenary on Wednesday.
Manga village is 20 kilometers away from Kashimbilla Dam.
“I rise this morning to draw the attention of our country men and particularly our security agencies to this unfortunate incident which undermines our integrity and sovereignty as a nation.
“Takum local government houses the 23 Battalion of the Nigerian Army, and so Mr. President, it is my humble submission that the Nigerian Army should rise to the challenge and curb this wanton territorial expansion.
“Their (Separatists) motive is yet unknown, whether they want to expand territory or lay claim for Southwest Cameroon is not yet clear,” he said.
Details later.
