The truckers, who transport essential goods, including fish and livestock, between Maiduguri and border communities such as Monguno, Marte and Kukawa, said the attacks have devastated their livelihoods. More than 20 trailers and trucks have been burnt within two months,” Muhammad told Daily Trust. He said the attacks had intensified in recent days, adding that between Friday and Monday, five vehicles—three trailers and two trucks—were set ablaze. He added that his own commercial vehicle, purchased by his father after the family fled Doron Baga following previous Boko Haram attacks, was also destroyed. The truckers called on security agencies to replicate the patrol strategy currently deployed along the Gwoza and Chibok roads on the volatile Monguno highway.
