According to a source cited by Daily Trust, terrorists also attacked Molai Kura and Molai Gana, where they massacred some individuals.

According to reports, numerous residents fled their homes for cover in the adjacent brush.

Top member of a vigilante group, Bukar Ali Musty, confirmed to journalists that the farmers were assaulted as they worked on their farmland near Molai in the Jere local government area of the state.

At least 15 bodies were evacuated this morning; the attacks took place yesterday (tuesday).

“Seven farmers were beheaded while working on their farmland, and the attackers also slit the throats of eight other harmless civilians in their homes,” Musty said.

Another civilian JTF who reportedly took part in the evacuation team raised concerns over the attacks, saying all stakeholders must wake up to ensure it doesn’t continue.
