Before getting to Maiha the media have been seeing burnt vehicles and
motorcycles belonging to the members of Boko Haram littering the roads,
cars in tens were seen packed by the roads side and deserted by
commuters for fear of been killed by the dreaded Islamic sect as the
roads was heavily stocked off with too much vehicles hindering a fast
movement, many prefer taking to their heels into nearby hideouts and
many ran to the border of Cameroun.
The town of Maiha was scanty, people were seen moving around with the able security men of the Nigerian military for protection.
Col. Danladi Jibrin Abdullahi, the man who lead 23 Army Guard
Brigade, in his address to the press said: “we want to take you round
Mubi to see the significant success recorded by the Nigerian army’.’
The correspondent narrated further: ”Mubi town is empty; all
Major roads were littered with decomposed human beings suspected to be
Book Haram terrorists; clothings, beddings and even kitchen utensils
defected the town with serious unfriendly odour seeping out of houses
and quarters; no single house is seen undamaged; all the mega churches
in the town were raze down and countless houses were burnt down.”
“Taking the press to the market square through the major road,
only few individuals were seen who got encourage by the security men
seen parading the street with their minimal market stuff crying “Allah
ya taimako,” meaning God will help the soldiers, making some sales
around. In the market is where we saw few petty traders but more than
half of the shops are under lock and keys and major part of the market
got burnt down by Boko Haram.”
An eyewitness and resident of Lukadi inside Mubi town Abdullahi Musa,
told journalist that if not because of Nigerian military the whole of
Adamawa state would have been capture by Boko Haram.
“In my life I saw hell losing down; I never thought we can be
free like this but because of these soldiers Mubi is safe for everybody
to come back. May God continue to help our soldiers so that this wicked
people will not resurface again.
“I am calling on our Emir to come back; I know if he does everybody will come back too,” Abdullahi said.
Immediately journalists left to Mubi, bad smells of dead human beings
made the air unwanted; you see and hear flies buzzing the air from the
unharvested farms of runaway IDPs; many vehicles belonging to Boko Haram
were destroyed and motorcycles lined the road from Mubi to Maraba.
From Maraban Mubi to Kalaa dead corpse of insurgents littered the
road; Kalaa Bridge was blown up by insurgents in order to frustrate the
effort of the military.
The areas visited comprised of Maiha, Mubi, Maraban Mubi, Hong, Kalaa
and Gombi which were earlier all captured by Boko Haram to be turned
into an Islamic caliphate but Nigerian army have bravely retaken it and
normalcy has since returned.
