The military also dispelled rumour that residents of Bama, Dikwa, and Monguno in Borno State should vacate their communities.
Deputy Director Public of Relations, Colonel Onyema Nwachukwu, in a press statement maintained that there is no reason for residents to relocate adding that some people with sinister motives are trying to create panic in the state.
Nwachukwu said, “It has come to our attention that these people are plotting to instigate the inhabitants of Bama, Dikwa and Monguno communities to abandon their communities and relocate to Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camps for undisclosed reasons.
