Boko Haram behe@ds women found with charms in Gwoza, accuses them of idolatry

Fighters of the Boko Haram faction loyal to Ali Ngulde have behe@ded two women in the Mandara Mountain area of Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State after accusing them of engaging in shirk (idolatry).

Security expert, Zagazola Makama, who confirmed this sad development, said that the victims were apprehended by the terrorists who alleged they were found with charms (layu) during a search around its settlements.

In a video recording, the insurgents claimed the charms found on the women were evidence of them committing the sin of idolatry and immediately subjected them to the faction’s makeshift trial system. They took the women to a secluded part of the mountains and executed them after the so-called trial.

The report stated that the execution was carried out publicly in the presence of other fighters and people to instill fear and enforce obedience to the faction’s doctrines.
