It is one of the sixteen LGAs that constitute the Borno Emirate, a traditional state located in Borno State, Nigeria.[2]

Agriculture

In 2013, according to PM News,

5,000 hectares (12,355 acres) of wheat and rice were left to rot in the Marte area of Borno near Lake Chad after 19,000 farmers abandoned their farms. “We lost 200 metric tonnes of wheat as a result of the exodus,” said Abubakar Gabra Iliya, head of the Lake Chad Basin Development Agency, based in the Borno state capital, Maiduguri. A 2012 NEMA report said that violence linked to the Boko Haram insurgency has caused 60 percent of farmers to leave the fertile region.[3]

Boko Haram violence

In May 2014, Boko Haram attacked villages in Marte LGA, according to The Punch. Kirenowa town had about 20 deaths, with one observer stating that over 60 houses were burnt.[4] In the town of Ngurmuji, over 40 deaths were reported.[5]

In Gurmushi Village, a "remote border community" on the Nigeria-Cameroon border, 40 deaths were reported. However, this claim could not be verified as of May 28.[6][7]

On 2 February 2015, the Nigerian Army said it had recaptured Marte from Boko Haram, along with the nearby towns of Gamboru, Mafa, Mallam Fatori, and Abadam, following joint military operations by Nigerian and Cameroonian forces, civilian forces, and three days of Chadian airstrikes.[8] However, in August 2016, Borno State government stated that Marte still hadn't been fully cleared of Boko Haram control.[9]
