Six male suicide bombers dressed in mini skirts were on Sunday
evening arrested by the military authorities in Jimeta-Yola the state
capital for alleged plans to bomb some yet to be known targets in the
state capital.
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
Reports have it that they were apprehended at the ever busy Mubi
roundabout following a tip-off by a tricyclist (keke Napep operator)
who suspected them and felt uncomfortable.
In a quick reaction, the military who were maning checks at the said
round about arrested them for questioning where they confessed to
their plans.
They (bombers) told the soldiers that they were thirty in number and
were in the state capital for suicide mission.
The suspects also tried to escape from the soldiers but failed as the
soldiers were ready for the unexpected.
When the soldiers removed their clothing they were found with the
boko haram tattoos all over their bodies.
Both police spokesmen D.S.P. Othman Abubakar and Army Spokesman
captain Nuhu Ja’afaru did not answer calls but a soldier pleading for
anonymity confirmed that some suspected insurgents were apprehended
and have been taken to the barracks for questioning.
