A statement issued by the President of the Adara Development Association (ADA), Awemi Dio Maisamari, said: “The terrorist/jihadist war on Adara nation has continued ferociously in 2020.
There were daily attacks and destructions from Monday to Thursday in the remote settlements of Magunguna, Idazo, Ungwan Galadima, Ungwan Guza, Etissi, Ungwan Ma’aji, Ungwan Dantata, Ungwan Araha 1 and 2, Ungwan Goshi, Ungwan Shaban, Ungwan Jibo, Ungwan Maijama’a, Ungwan Sako, Ungwan Maidoki and Ungwan Masaba.
