Eight Boko Haram terrorists on a suicide bombing mission to Gubio town in Gubio Local Council in Borno State were on Wednesday thwarted by men of Operation Lafiya Dole at a checkpoint.
This was confirmed in a statement issued by the Acting Director of Army Public Relations, Col Sani Usman.
"Troops of Operation LAFIYA DOLE deployed at a checkpoint in Gubio, Gubio Local Government Area of Borno State at about 9.15am this morning, foiled a suicide attack on Gubio town by 8 Boko Haram terrorists. The suicide bombers who came in a Bedford pick up vehicle primed with Improvised Explosive Devices including suicide vests, attempted to force their way through the checkpoint but met stiff resistance from troops who insisted that the vehicle be thoroughly checked. The suicide bombers refused and blew up themselves by detonating one of the suicide vests killing all the 8 Boko Haram terrorists on board."
