A suicide bomber who rammed into a military
check point in Bajoga, Gombe State Wednesday, failed to achieve his mission.
A coding to Major General Chris Olukolade,
Director Defence Information, he said the bomber attempt to escape also failed
as he was brought down by vigilant soldiers when he tried to flee after hitting
a military Amoured Personnel Carrier with his IED laden Honda car. The
explosives which failed to detonate have been evacuated and handed to the
police.
Also in Kano, security forces have raided the
terrorists’ hideout in Nasarawa Local Government Area leading to the arrest of
bomb making experts who are already helping in the investigation into
activities of bombers lately. Officers believe that the efforts will yield
useful clues.
Troops deployed in all locations of the
counter terrorism campaign have been directed to sustain the tempo of
operations all through the period of seasonal celebrations and ensure that the
intention of terrorists to attack civilian target while avoiding troops is duly
frustrated.
