Reports indicate that suspected Ambazonia separatists from Cameroon unleashed mayhem in Takum Local Government Area of Taraba State.
This was made known on Wednesday by Senate Deputy Minority Leader, Emmanuel Bwacha.
The Minority Leader said the assailants also gunned down the village head and some residents of Manga community.
Bwacha, who represents Taraba South in the Senate, urged the Nigerian Army to immediately swing into action to prevent the eventual occupation of Manga community by the separatists.
He said, “I rise this morning to draw the attention of our countrymen and particularly our security agencies to this unfortunate incident which undermines our integrity and sovereignty as a nation.
“Takum local government 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.”
