Terror was unleashed on Maiduguri, Borno State capital today. Fighters from the Islamist sect Boko Haram attempted to bomb and take over a major military base known as "Giwa barracks" in Maiduguri.

Fortunately, Nigerian soldiers were able to foil their attempt which has been described as attempt by pockets of terrorists to free detained Boko Haram members.

Director of Defence Information, Major General Chris Olukolade said:

“ Pockets of terrorists apparently in a move to boost their depleted stock of fighters this morning attacked a military location in Maiduguri with a view to freeing their colleagues who are being held in detention. The attack has been successfully repelled with heavy human casualty on the terrorists. Some of the victims of the terrorists’ fired in their efforts to break into the detention facility, included those they came to rescue. Many of the terrorists and their weapons have been captured. Four soldiers were wounded and are being treated. Hot pursuits by land and air operations are ongoing along with cordon and search of surrounding localities.”

The Defence Headquarters believes “this terrorists attempt is in response to the intensity of attacks on their strongholds in camps at Talala, Monguzum, Sambisa forests, Gwoza, Mandara mountains as well as the general area of Lake Chad. The camps have been destroyed and many insurgents killed
