In a statement yesterday AI Nigeria Director, Osai Ojigho lamented Tuesday’s attack in Mubi that killed at least 59 people.
Ojigho said the attack happened only days after the reported abduction and beheading of six farmers in Dimge village in Mafa Local Government Area, Borno State.
He said since 2010 Amnesty International has been documenting human rights abuses and serious violations of international humanitarian law by Boko Haram that may amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity.
