For descriptive purpose only For descriptive purpose only

Boko Haram insurgents have dealt another dastard blow, attacking motorists near Lantaiwa, a community located 70 kilometers north from Damaturu the Yobe state capital and 30 kilometers to Dapchi where 110 schoolgirls were abducted in 2018.

According to the Acting Assistant Director Army Public Relations, Sector 2 Operation Lafiya Dole, Lieutenant Chinonso Oteh, he said operatives of the army were deployed to the area, however, information on whether passengers have been abducted or not is still sketchy.

Last Sunday, they succeeded in destroying two telecommunication masts in Babbangida, the headquarters of Tarmuwa Local Government Council of the State in order to stop the locals from sharing information with the security personnel.
