A medical doctor cried out on X. She said Nigerian soldiers invaded her home at about 5am this morning, May 31.
According to her, the soldiers broke their gate, then proceeded to break their door before picking up her younger siblings who were at home with her father.
She said only her aged father was spared.
She added that her brother is just 15 and has no affiliations to unknown gunmen.
She stated that she has no idea where her siblings were taken and no one has supplied them with information.
Meanwhile, other residents have also cried out.
A video shared online shows soldiers rounding people up and ordering them into a van.
A voice in the background is heard saying the soldiers are picking up youths at random without concern for their innocence.
