Borno Govt Warns Fishing Communities Against Partnership With Boko Haram

by AgroNigeria

Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, has warned farmers and fishing communities in Baga against collaborating with Boko Haram insurgents.

The governor emphasized that such actions pose a significant threat to the peace and stability of the region.

Addressing residents at the palace of the district head in Baga on Wednesday, he decried any form of collaboration with insurgents, describing it as unacceptable and detrimental to ongoing efforts to restore stability in the state.

He said, “I urge the people of Baga and surrounding communities to conduct their farming activities only within areas approved by the military.”

Zulum highlighted the importance of adhering to guidelines set by the Nigerian military and the state government.

He stressed that compliance is critical for maintaining security in the region.

“While we support agricultural activities, it is critical that our people comply with the guidelines to ensure their safety and the stability of the state,” he added.

The governor’s visit to Baga followed a recent attack in Dumba, Kukawa Local Government Area, earlier reported by Agronigeria. 

Reports gathered that members of the Islamic State of the West African Province (ISWAP) killed 40 farmers.
