“They shot sporadically and everyone scampered for safety. They burgled soft drinks shops and loaded them onto two vehicles they seized from security operatives and fled,” a fleeing resident told Daily Trust.

The attack has been confirmed by Police Public Relation Officer in the state, ASP Toyin Gbadegesin.

“No human casualty was recorded. But three security men were injured while two others got missing. It’s difficult to ascertain the security personnel involved because there’s no mobile network in the area,” he said.

The terrorists also reportedly stole other foodstuffs during the attack lending credence to reports that Boko Haram is suffering from a food scarcity.
