Five policemen and 20 gunmen had been confirmed dead with over nine million naira carted away from a commercial bank during an alleged attack by Boko Haram terrorists in Gashua yesterday, Yobe State Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Sanusi Rufai has said.
Rufai, who made this known while briefing newsmen in Damaturu, said that two policemen also sustained injuries and were currently receiving treatment.
According to him, the gunmen had earlier seized the bank manager, forcing him to open the vault. They also carted away a Peugeot 406 and Toyota Corolla cars. The police and military men later engaged the gunmen in a gun battle, recovering the two cars and an Isuzu Hilux van, belonging to the terrorists.
The commissioner said that two guns, two locally made pistols; two long range rifles; 19 hand grenades and assorted ammunitions were also recovered from the gunmen, adding that one of the gunmen was captured and was now assisting the police with information on the attack.
“It is the same group using police and military uniforms that attacked Tarmuwa, Gulani and Giedam in recent times,” Rufai said.
