Boko Haram Fighters Invaded Babangida Town Again by jcodez(m): 3:58pm On Jan 24, 2016


Boko Haram insurgents invaded Babangida town, Tarmowa local government area of Yobe State, early Sunday.
The sect members were, however, chased away by vigilant soldiers.
A resident of the town, Sulaiman Khalil told Daily Trust that the assailants parked their vehicles at the outskirt and sneaked into town on foot and motorcycles.
“Fortunately enough, the security forces were fully aware of their plan. They engaged them in serious gun battle that lasted for hours before the military thwarted their attack plan.
“But an old man was killed by the insurgents outside his tent before they burnt down the shed; his neighbours said he was trying to escape when the militants saw him,” he said.
A fleeing resident told the newspaper that there were apprehensions of possible attack on the town the day before as “the boys (militants) were sighted at Sassawa Saturday afternoon. We alerted security operatives but nothing was done.”
He said that the militants had burnt two patrol vehicles of policemen in the town.

Boko boys at it again...

The war has gone to the level where proper intelligence gathering network will be critical in reducing

the Kamikaze and hit and run attacks.

This will be the only way to stop/reduce them.
