Gashua (Yobe) – The Joint
Task Force (JTF) on security
in Yobe has confirmed the
death of two policemen and
five suspected terrorists in
an attack early on Thursday.
The policemen and terrorists
lost their lives during an
attack on security formations
by suspected Islamic Boko
Haram members at Gashua in
the Bade Local Government
Area of Yobe.
The Spokesman of the JTF, Lt.
Eli Lazarus, made the
announcement in a
statement made available to
Journalists.
Lazarus said that some of the
attackers escaped with
gunshot wounds and
appealed to the public,
particularly medical
personnel not to treat any
one with gun shot wounds.
“Please, help us by informing
the police or any of the task
force formations before
anyone with gunshot
wounds would be treated.
“Those that escaped with
gunshot wounds also carted
away two vehicles, police
uniforms and other items
from the police station,” he
said.
The statement noted that
“security operatives on the
other hand recovered three
vehicles, one AK47 rifle and
one Rocket Propelled
Grenade bomb.
“Other items recovered
include, one locally made
pistol, one generating set
and a large quantity of
ammunition.”
The statement added that
the JTF was conducting
‘cordon and search’
operation in Gashua to fish
out any of the gunmen
probably hiding in the village.
The JTF assured that it was
on top of the situation and
solicited for cooperation
from the public to ensure
that normalcy returned to
Gashua. (NAN)
