Some residents who fled Mubi town,
Adamawa State shortly after the Boko
Haram terrorist group attacked the town,
have said that the insurgents used
special rocket-propelled grenades to
burn down churches.
One of the priests, who spoke with
newsmen on the telephone and who
simply identified himself as Rev. Yakubu,
said that the terrorists had started
burning down the churches before he
ran out of the town.
The insurgents captured Mubi town on
October 30, 2014 in a daytime raid after
attacking the military installation there,
chasing soldiers and residents out of the
town and killing many.
Apart from the forceful conversion of
some Christians to Islam, Yakubu said
that the Boko Haram insurgents
slaughtered those who refused to be
converted.
