At least two Nigerians were allegedly killed by military men during a protest triggered by a terror attack in Katsina.
Four others were left critically injured, Kanon Haki villagers told BBC Hausa.
The villagers said they reported to the Nigerian Army how Boko Haram terrorists were planning to attack their homes.
The attack occurred on Tuesday and claimed the lives of seven villagers, but the military was nowhere to be found.
