BREAKING: Gunmen invades Gujba town in Yobe burn school, construction work equipment

Gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram terrorists have stormed Gujba town in Yobe State firing gunshots sporadically.

The heavy gunshots have forced residents to scamper for safety.

“The attackers who invaded the town this evening have burnt a primary school and construction work equipment”, he disclosed.

The identity of the assailants is not yet ascertained, but the attack is similar to that of Boko Haram/ISWAP militants.

Gujba town is few kilometers away from Damaturu the Yobe State capital and the attack is coming three days after Boko Haram insurgents invaded Geidam town where they burnt public and private property in addition to the looting of shops.
