Normalcy Restored in Recaptured Towns of Adamawa

aji Sani in Yola
Normalcy is beginning to return to Mubi,
Gombi, Hong, Maiha towns of Adamawa state
after their recent recapturing by the Nigerian
troops from the hands of the Boko Haram
insurgents.
The towns were deserted as a result of the
incessant attacks unleashed on them by the
insurgents who were killing innocent residents
and destroying property worth billions of naira
in the affected area.
To know the true situation and build confidence
in the minds of the people, the Correspondent
Chapel in Yola visited Mubi and other affected
towns Monday,
Some residents of the areas who spoke to
journalists in Mubi confirmed that the town has
been taken over from the control of the
insurgents and they expressed happiness with
the recent development.
Some residents who spoke exclusively to
ThisDay said they can now go to bed with their
eyes closed, saying the military has taken firm
control of the area and that the soldiers have
been kind to them.
However, a visit round the town shows low
socio-economic activities as major streets of the
town remains deserted while some shops
across the major streets of Mubi have remained
under lock and a few traders were spotted at
the Central Market going about their normal
businesses.
