(Reuters) - At least 22 people were killed when gunmen stormed a village in northeast Nigeria, a security official said on Monday, adding it was likely the work of militant Islamist group Boko Haram.
The attack on the remote village of Daku in northeast Borno state started on Sunday, and security forces have since confirmed 22 people were killed, the official said, asking not to be named.
The gunmen arrived in a military column and brandished AK-47s, similar to previous Boko Haram attacks, the official said.
