The Saudi Arabia Royal Embassy in Abuja has strongly condemned the recent terrorist attack in Yobe State.
The Yobe State Police Public Relations Officer, Dungus Abdulkarim, had said that gunmen believed to be Boko Haram insurgents attacked Mafa village in Tarmuwa Local Government Area, looting and burning shops and homes.
The police spokesperson said the attackers killed an unspecified number of people and left behind fliers with Arabic writing.
A letter found at the scene detailed the attackers’ motives, claiming the village had military connections.
