The objective is to terrorize the non-Muslims into leaving the area, so that before too long it’s a Muslim area, and the scope of Islamic hegemony expands.
“The Adamawa State Police Command has acknowledged the recent wave of violence but stated that situations in affected communities are being brought under control.”
This is sheer blague. The situation is not being brought under control. The jihad in Nigeria has been raging for years, and is not being countered effectively. It will continue.
“B’Haram’s 3rd Strike in 6 Days Leaves Hong, Adamawa in Ruins as Many Killed, Scores Injured,” by Emmanuel Kwada, TG News, December 30, 2025:
In a chilling escalation of violence during the festive season, suspected Boko Haram insurgents launched their third deadly attack in less than a week on communities in Hong Local Government Area (LGA) of Adamawa State, leaving the villages of Mubang and Zah in ruins.
The latest assault, which occurred on Monday evening around 6:00 PM, claimed the lives of at least 14 people, with many more injured and scores displaced amid widespread destruction.
Local resident Mr. Abalis Jawaja, speaking exclusively to reporters, described the attack as a “mayhem” that targeted vulnerable civilians, including women, youths, and elderly men. “Suspected Boko Haram members rained terror on Mubang village, killing indiscriminately,” he said.
Mubang, located about eight kilometers from Garaha – a major town in Hong LGA – and the neighboring Zah community bore the brunt of the coordinated raid. Attackers set fire to numerous homes, rendering entire families homeless, while looting food items and other valuables.
Jawaja noted that residents have ventured into nearby bushes in search of bodies of those who fled during the chaos but did not survive. “Over 14 persons are feared killed so far, and the toll could rise as searches continue,” he added.
The incident marks the third such strike in the area within six days, underscoring the persistent threat from Boko Haram and affiliated groups like the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) in this border region.
Hong LGA, situated in northern Adamawa and adjacent to Borno State’s notorious Sambisa Forest – a longtime hideout for jihadist factions – has endured over a decade of intermittent attacks by insurgents, bandits, and terrorist elements.
Earlier incidents during the Christmas period included twin assaults on nearby communities, such as Mayo Ladde and Garaha districts, where at least two soldiers and several civilians were killed, according to reports from security sources and local media.
Troops from Operation Hadin Kai, in collaboration with police and Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) members, have been deployed to the area, with intensified patrols aimed at repelling further incursions.
However, residents express growing frustration over the lack of permanent security presence, allowing militants to strike and retreat with relative ease.

It would be nice if the US could drop a proper bomb right in the middle of these killers, rapiusts and kidnappers but that is difficult. You need ground troops that can outflank them and take them out. That should be Nigerian troops but those type do not show up until after the Islamist killers destroy the village, kill who they want and kidnap young girls and then disappear. Then the Nigerian army shows up and acts tough. I suggest sending in Americans who can train the local Christian people and let them fight their own battle but with proper weapons we supply. I think they will eventually convince the Muslim terrorists to back off.

Maybe some co-ordinated bombing all over that country, or at least in the north, is what is needed
JeffS says
Why aren’t these people armed so they can defend themselves?

I’m running out of ideas…
Perhaps the United States could parachute in some M-16s – with plenty of ammo – along with some grenade launchers – to the local Christian people.
