Many families in Borno State’s Marte local government council have returned to their hometowns after being displaced by terrorist attacks.
This follows the return of peace to the area as facilities, along with other buildings, were razed in the recent attack on Marte.
Hundreds of families were forced to relocate due to the growing attacks.
The returnees who fled for safety expressed happiness to be back home.
According to authorities, keeping villages unoccupied will increase the likelihood that terrorists will infiltrate and plant improvised explosive devices in the area.
The struggle to sustain peace in the towns and villages across the state is still ongoing, and residents of these villages continue to show their resilience in enduring the threat, especially with the help of local authorities.
