Ngamdu is located 100 kilometers, west of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, on the road to Damaturu, the Yobe State capital.

The gunmen stormed the town at about 9:30pm on Saturday in two motorcycles, armed with knives and machetes, tying the hands of their victims to the back before slaughtering them like rams.

A cleric identified as Mallam Sheriff and another cleric, were killed by the bandits, who were said to have also slaughtered two other residents of the town during the attack.

No motive have been stated for the attack and killings.
