Boko Haram militants killed 28 people during attacks on remote farming and fishing villages in northeast Nigeria, Sky News quoted a Nigerian security source as saying Friday.
A total of 24 people were killed in an attack in Marfunudi, 50 miles from the Borno state capital of Maiduguri.
Boko Haram militants slit the throats of many of the victims, the source said.
The militants also attacked the fishing village of Kafa on Thursday, killing four people, the source added.
More than 1,000 people have been killed since President Muhammadu Buhari was elected in March with a pledge to annihilate the militants, whose 6-year-old uprising has killed a total of 20,000 people. Nearly 2 million have been driven from their homes.
