“The road is narrow and they allowed us into their midst before opening fire on us at close range,” the personnel was quoted by the paper as saying. Efforts to return fire and scare them into hiding ware futile as bullets were not penetrating them, he said.

The militiamen, dressed in black shirts and caps, kept approaching amidst heavy gunfire, which forced their Hilux van, the last van on the convoy, to turn back. “Due to the nature of the road and ensuing gun duel, our men could not turn back and 10 of us in our van were able to manoeuvre our way out but not without suffering bullet wounds,” he said.http://www.spammer.com/2013/05/nasarawa-militiamen-trapped-slain.html
