Boko Haram and Nigeria Military Troop Clashe in Abadam Over 2000 civilians have on Saturday evening and Sunday morning fled Abadam Local Government Area of Borno North Senatorial District. A journalist travelling in the Nigerian-Niger Republic border confirmed to Reporters ­that between the said period over 2000 civilians have fled their homes and crossed over into Niger Republic. The strange sounds of weapons and explosives being exchanged reminded the villagers of the recent Baga killings, which made them decide to flee. It was also gathered that the arrival of hundreds of soldiers in the villages made the villagers uncomfortable. The fleeing Nigerians are camping in Bosso, Diffa State, of Niger Republic. The villagers fled in large numbers, running out, some on cars, motorcycles and bicycles and others on foot, into neighbouring Niger Republic.
