Boko Haram insurgents allegedly kill CAN chairman in Adamawa LG

Boko Haram insurgents have allegedly killed Lawan Andimi, chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Michika Local Government area of Adamawa State.

A journalist reporting the activities of the insurgents in Northeast Nigeria, Ahmad Salkida, disclosed this in a tweet via his Twitter handle on Tuesday.

Salkida tweeted: “To break some news items can traumatize. I’m battling with one of such. Reverend Andimi, abducted by #BokoHaram was executed yesterday. Rev. Andimi was a church leader, a father to his children and the community he served. My condolences go to his family.

“Reverend Lawan Andimi was beheaded yesterday afternoon, the video of the appalling executions with that of a soldier was obtained at 2:42 pm. I made sure that the family, the authorities and the church were duly informed before the news was put out to the public this morning.”

However, authorities are yet to confirm the incident.
