Again!!! Soldiers, Policemen Killed As Terrorists Attack Borno Governor’s Convoy

Gunmen suspected to be terrorist fighters on Friday, opened fire on the convoy of Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum.

The attack comes barely two months after Zulum was attacked around the same axis by the insurgents on his way from Baga.

The Jihadist fighters opened fire with machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades as the convoy was passing through a village close to the headquarters of the Multinational Joint Task Force.

The location of the incident is believed to be a a very dangerous area because it has recorded many abductions by the terrorist group in recent times.
