Suspected Ambazonian separatist militants from Cameroon have attacked Manga community in Takum LGA of Taraba State kiling the village head and 10 other residents,

This was made known by the Senate Deputy Minority Leader, Emmanuel Bwacha, during the plenary of the Upper House on Wednesday. Senator Bwacha (PDP-Taraba South) revealed that the separatists burnt down the village.

He called on security agents to, as a matter of urgency, swing into action to prevent Manga community from falling into the hands of Ambazonian fighters.

Bwacha said “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 Area 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.

“As I speak, a number of individuals have gone missing and their whereabouts are yet unknown. The village also is razed down.”
