Boko Haram insurgents on Saturday slaughtered at least 43 farmworkers, injuring another six in rice fields near Maiduguri, anti-jihadist militia stated.

According to AFP, the insurgents tied up the agricultural workers and slit their throats in the village of Koshobe.

“We have recovered 43 dead bodies, all of them slaughtered, along with six others with serious injuries,” said militia leader Babakura Kolo, who helped the survivors. “It is no doubt the handiwork of Boko Haram, who operate in the area and frequently attack farmers.”

“The victims were labourers from Sokoto state in northwest Nigeria, roughly 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) away, who had traveled to the northeast to find work, said Ibrahim Liman, another militiaman who gave the same toll.

“There were 60 farmers who were contracted to harvest … the rice fields. Forty-three were slaughtered, with six injured,” Liman said.

“Eight others were missing, presumed to have been kidnapped by the jihadists,” he said.

“The bodies were taken to Zabarmari village, two kilometers away, where they would be kept ahead of burial Sunday, said resident Mala Bunu, who took part in the search-and-rescue operation.”

Recal that the insurgents slaughtered 22 farmers working in their irrigation fields near Maiduguri in two separate incidents in October.

Boko Haram and ISWAP, its IS-linked rival, have recently targeted loggers, herders and fishermen in their violent campaign, accusing them of spying and passing information to the military and the local militia fighting them.
