Two
suspected Boko Haram fighters have fled to Bama in Borno State from their camps
at the Sambisa Forest over persistent killing of non-conforming members by
Shekau,the sect leader, Daily Trust reports.
It was
gathered that insurgents, including those who willingly joined the sect and
those that were coerced to join are being killed by their commanders at the
Sambisa Forest as soon as they show signs of resistance to operations.

Yunus, a youth from Bama said the two that fled are well known sect members.
“So when we sighted them [in Bama] we went after them,” he said. According to
him, one of them was arrested but the other escaped.
“After interrogation, the
one that was arrested confessed that they fled from Sambisa because of threats,
while the other one fled out of fear he’d be killed without opportunity to
explain their exit from their enclave,” he said.
