Suspected members of the
Boko Haram sect Monday
invaded Shani Local
Government Area of Borno
state setting ablaze the
Divisional Police Station and
many other building in the
town.
They were said to have
razed down shops and
vehicles using Improvised
Explosive Devices and petrol
bombs.
The caretaker chairman of
Shani council, Alhaji Modu
Walama who was said to
have escaped series of
attacks by assassins and
terrorists in recent past,
narrowly escaped being
killed by the terrorists who
were poaching for him.
They were said to have
attacked the council boss
family house in Walama
and killed one of his sons
when they discovered that
the Chairman was not in the
house.
It was gathered from
sources that the heavily
armed terrorists invaded
the town on motorcycles
and bombed the Divisional
Police Headquarters at
about 2:45pm on Monday,
after they realized that
almost all the policemen on
duty had fled the area.
They were said to have
snatched one of the patrol
vehicles of the police and set
it ablaze after they
discovered that the engine is
not in perfect order.
They went from there into
the town and shot
sporadically aimlessly in the
town before fleeing towards
Gwaskara village.
Shani is the southern part of
the troubled state and about
245 kilometres drive from
Maiduguri and shares
boundary with some parts
of Adamawa state.
Mallam Aliyu Usman , a
resident of Shani who was
among those who fled out of
town during the attack told
journalists that they got
news of the terrorists
lurking around the town at
about 8am when they were
sighted by some women on
their farmlands around
Walama, an outskirt of the
town.
They had scared off the
women from their farms,
telling them that they have
deadly mission to execute in
some places in Shani.
All effort to get the Police
Public Relations Officer,
Gideon Jubrin for
confirmation was not
successful as his phone line
was inaccessible as at the
time of filing the report,
