Boko Haram Abducts 2 Politicians, Wife & 2 Children

The wife and two children of a politician, Zaraye Mala

Sheriff, have been reportedly abducted by Boko Haram in

Ngal town, Borno State.

Two prominent politicians in the area, Alhaji Annur

Mohammed and Liman Alhaji Hussaini, were also

kidnapped when the insurgents stormed the town in the

early hours of Friday.

A source from Ngala who spoke to Daily Trust said: "The

insurgents stormed the house of the Zaraye around

12.30am on Friday and asked the wife about her husband.

They also asked her for the money he kept at home but she

kept quiet. Luckily enough, Zaraye was at the other side of

the house and when he heard the conversation, he fled."

Apparently angry over the woman's silence, the sect took

her and two of her children away.
