Boko Haram Storms Adamawa Community, Kidnaps Eight Family Members Including Newborn

Suspected Boko Haram militants have kidnapped eight members of one family, including a one-month-old baby, following a midnight attack on Palam community in Madagali Local Government Area of Adamawa State.

A relative who escaped the assault told SaharaReporters that the gunmen struck around 2am on Sunday, firing shots as they forced their way into the family’s compound and abducted the victims.

The source said the attackers were searching for the family head, Bitrus Kwavanza, who was reportedly away on a business trip in a nearby community when the raid took place.

“They came asking for my uncle. When they couldn’t find him, they took his family instead,” the source said.

Palam is located in Madagali Local Government Area, the home LGA of Adamawa State Governor, Umaru Fintiri, underscoring renewed concerns over the worsening security situation even in politically sensitive areas of the state.

On January 20, suspected Boko Haram fighters attacked Kirchinga, Governor Fintiri’s hometown, killing two forest guards and abducting another, in what residents described as a brazen show of insurgent resurgence.

In the latest attack, local sources disclosed that the terrorists arrived on tricycle motorcycles, targeted Kwavanza’s household, and abducted his wife, six children, and an infant grandchild.

One of the abducted victims, Esther, had reportedly returned home shortly after childbirth to recuperate with her family when the terrorists struck.

“She had just given birth and came home to rest. She was forced to trek into the Sambisa Forest with her mother, siblings, and her baby,” the source recounted.

As of Monday afternoon, the abductors had made no ransom demand, but contacted the family with a chilling threat.

“They called my uncle and said they would release the breastfeeding mother, but that all the others would be executed in the coming days,” the visibly shaken family member told reporters on Monday evening.

The Chairman of the Madagali Local Government Area confirmed the abduction, describing the security situation as rapidly deteriorating.

“Yes, the incident happened. The security situation is worsening. We are awaiting updates from the security forces handling the matter,” he said.

Residents of Madagali have repeatedly raised the alarm over what they describe as renewed Boko Haram activity, accusing authorities of failing to provide adequate protection despite repeated attacks, abductions, and killings.

  1. Been using Tenobet since about the spring, and I suppose I have a fair bit of experience to give an honest take. Stumbled on it off a mate who was after somewhere with proper slot coverage that didn’t have the usual affordability checks you get now on the regulated UK ones. Should flag early: this isn’t UK Gambling Commission licensed and it isn’t on GamStop, and that will matter to some of you a lot.

    The lobby is pretty huge — somewhere around 3,000+ slots by my count, and the usual heavy hitters are all there: Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play n GO, BTG, Yggdrasil, Microgaming. Mainly I grind Gates of Olympus plus Gates of Olympus, both behave properly in browser. Live dealer’s Evolution, which means what you’re getting — actual dealers, the game shows like Crazy Time when I fancy a punt on something daft. There’s a sportsbook too, which I’ve dabbled in for footy, decent odds, nothing groundbreaking.

    On the sign-up offer is 100% up to ?125 and 100 free spins, and you need the code JOIN002 or it won’t trigger. Read the wagering before you commit, it’s not amazing but not predatory to be honest. Don’t expect free credit without depositing unfortunately. If you want to see current promos, they’re listed over on [url=https://solvecovid19.net/]https://solvecovid19.net[/url] before you sign up. Minimum deposit is a tenner, the form took under five minutes.

    Payments have been the better half for me. Visa/Mastercard go through, Skrill and Neteller are supported, Bitcoin and a few other coins for anyone who wants that. Skrill withdrawals have landed in under 24 hours; Visa took a bit longer. The one thing that annoyed me was KYC — took a day and a half to verify me, and my first withdrawal just sat there until that cleared. Nothing shady about it, just slower than I’d like.

    Few more things: there’s no app, so it’s the mobile site. Works fine on my iPhone but I do miss having one. The login sometimes gets sluggish at peak times. Live chat at Tenobet is live chat, English, decent, but the first replies read like templates. Push past that and someone competent turns up.

  2. I’ve been using Tenobet since roughly February, so I figure I’ve got a fair bit of experience to give an honest take. Stumbled on it through someone on another board who wanted something with proper lobby depth without the usual affordability nonsense you get now on the regulated UK ones. Worth saying up front: this isn’t UKGC licensed and it isn’t on the GamStop scheme, and that will matter to some of you a lot.

    The lobby is pretty huge — about 3,500+ titles last I looked, with the providers that matter all turn up: Pragmatic, Net Ent, Play n GO, BTG, Yggdrasil, Microgaming’s back catalogue. I mostly rinse Sweet Bonanza plus Gates of Olympus, both load quick in browser. Live dealer’s all Evolution, so it’s exactly what you expect — real croupiers, Crazy Time and Lightning Roulette for a change of pace. They do sports as well, which I’ve used a handful of times for the football, nothing special.

    The welcome thing it’s a 100% match to ?125 with 100 spins thrown in, you have to use the promo code JOIN002 at deposit otherwise it just doesn’t apply. Read the wagering before depositing, it’s not amazing but not predatory either. No no-deposit freebie unfortunately. If you want to see what’s running currently, you’ll find them over on [url=https://solvecovid19.net]tenobet[/url] before you sign up. Min deposit’s a tenner, signing up took about three minutes.

    Money side’s been generally fine in my experience. Visa and Mastercard go through, Skrill and Neteller are there, Bitcoin and a few other coins if you prefer. My Skrill cashouts have come through within a day; Visa took slower, 3-4 days. My main gripe was KYC — it took a day and a half to approve my ID, so the first cashout just sat there the whole time. Not dodgy, just a bit of a wait.

    Few more things: they don’t have an app, which means mobile browser only. Honestly it’s fine on my phone but I’d prefer a proper app. Logging in sometimes gets sluggish in the evenings. Customer service at Tenobet is live chat, English, decent, but the first replies feel a bit scripted. Get past the script and someone competent turns up.

  3. Been playing at Tenobet since roughly the spring, and I figure I’ve got a fair bit of mileage to say something useful. Found it off a mate of mine who was chasing a site with proper lobby depth without the usual deposit limit nagging you see everywhere now on the UK licensed sites. Worth saying up front: it’s not UKGC licensed and it’s not on GamStop, and that will matter to some of you a lot.

    Lobby’s honestly massive — somewhere around 4,000+ slots going by the counter, with the providers that matter are all there: Pragmatic, Net Ent, Play’n GO, Big Time Gaming, Yggdrasil, Microgaming’s back catalogue. Mainly I grind Sweet Bonanza plus Gates of Olympus, which both load quick in browser. Live dealer’s all Evolution, which means what you’re getting — actual dealers, Crazy Time for a change of pace. Sports betting’s bolted on as well, and it gets a bit of use from me for Premier League, decent odds, nothing groundbreaking.

    On the sign-up offer it’s 100% up to ?125 plus 100 free spins, and you need the code JOIN002 at deposit or it won’t trigger. Do read the terms first, it’s fairly standard to be honest. There’s no no-deposit bonus unfortunately. To check what’s running currently, you’ll find them over on [url=https://solvecovid19.net]is tenobet legit[/url] before you sign up. Minimum deposit is ?10, standard stuff, registration took under five minutes.

    Cashouts have been the better half for me. Cards go through, e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller are there, Bitcoin and a few other coins for anyone who wants that. E-wallet withdrawals have come through in under 24 hours; cards were slower, 3-4 days. What did wind me up was KYC — it took 36-48 hours to approve my ID, and my first withdrawal just sat there the whole time. Not dodgy, but a bit of a wait.

    Other gripes: there’s no app, which means browser only. It’s responsive enough on my phone though I’d prefer a proper app. Logging in can be a bit slow at peak times. Support’s fine — maybe five minutes to get a human, though the first replies read like templates. Get past the script and someone competent turns up.

  4. I’ve been punting on Tenobet since about March, and I suppose I’ve got a fair bit of history to actually comment. Stumbled on it off someone on another board who wanted something with proper slot coverage without the usual affordability checks you run into now on the UK licensed sites. Should flag early: it’s not UK Gambling Commission licensed and it isn’t on the GamStop scheme, and that is either the point or a dealbreaker.

    The lobby is pretty huge — roughly 4,000+ slots last I looked, and the usual heavy hitters are all there: Pragmatic, Net Ent, Play’n GO, Big Time Gaming, Yggdrasil, Microgaming. I mostly stick to Gates of Olympus and Sweet Bonanza, which both load quick on mobile browser. Live side is Evolution, so you know exactly what you expect — real croupiers, Crazy Time if that’s your thing. Sports betting’s bolted on as well, and it gets a bit of use from me for footy, it’s fine, nothing more.

    On the sign-up offer it’s 100% up to ?125 with 100 spins thrown in, you have to use the promo code JOIN002 at deposit — I nearly forgot it the first time. Do read the terms before depositing, it’s fairly standard either. Don’t expect free credit without depositing unfortunately. To check the live offers, you’ll find them at [url=https://solvecovid19.net]tenobet review[/url] rather than taking my word for it. Min deposit’s ?10, standard stuff, registration took under five minutes.

    Money side’s been the stronger part in my experience. Cards go through, e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller are supported, Bitcoin and a few other coins for anyone who wants that. E-wallet withdrawals have come through in under 24 hours; cards were closer to three days. The one thing that annoyed me was the verification — they took a day and a half to approve my ID, so the first cashout sat waiting the whole time. Nothing shady about it, but slower than I’d like.

    Couple of niggles: they don’t have an app, which means the mobile site. It’s responsive enough on my iPhone but I’d prefer a proper app. The login sometimes gets sluggish around weekend evenings. Support’s fine — maybe five minutes to get a human, but the opening messages feel a bit scripted. Ask a specific question and they sort it.
