July 28, (THEWILL) – Terrorists, suspected to be members of Boko Haram, have attacked Jakana Police Station in Konduga Local Government Area of Borno State, killing at least two persons including a policeman.
A source in the area said the terrorists also burnt two patrol vehicles belonging to the police and members of the Civilian Joint Task Force and a motorcycle and some arms and ammunition were carted away by the insurgents.
Jakana is about 45km drive from Maiduguri, located along Damaturu-Maiduguri Expressway.
Earlier in May, suspected Boko Haram insurgents, dressed in military uniforms, attacked the Ibrahim Taiwo Police Headquarters, housing the area command and divisional headquarters, along Baga Road in Maiduguri.
The attack was in an attempt to free some of the insurgents members arrested during a drug raid on a black spot at Kasuwan Fara, along Gubio Road.
