Boko Haram Attack Police Station, Kill Two Officers In Borno

No fewer than two officers have been killed, following an attack by some gunmen, suspected to be Boko Haram terrorists at a police station in Gajiram, Nganzai Local Government Area of Borno State.

It was gathered that one other police officer was critically injured as the terrorists exchanged fire with police on duty at the station before they were overpowered and repelled.

In a statement on Thursday, by Borno State Police Command’s Spokesman, Kenneth Daso, disclosed that the officers died from injuries after grenades thrown by the attackers landed on a shelter tent behind the division amid gunfire.

He added that the bodies of the officers have been deposited at the state General Hospital in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno.

The statement reads: “On 9th January 2025, at about 12:10 a.m., unknown gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram terrorists attempted to invade Nganzai police division.

“Gallant officers on duty repelled the terrorists. After a series of exchanges in gunfire, the terrorists threw hand grenades, which unfortunately landed on a shelter tent behind the division, fatally wounding two officers.

“During the scene assessment by the commissioner of police, two hand grenades were recovered by EOD-CBRN Base 13 Maiduguri. The bodies of the deceased have been taken to the State General Hospital, Maiduguri.

“The commissioner commended the officers who stood their ground to prevent the attack and extended condolences to the families of the two officers who lost their lives.”

When security officials are killed in the North we are told the terrorists or bandits did it and no action is taken against the community but if it happens in south east or south south a whole local government area or the community is invaded and subsequently wiped out. You even hear calls from North that the whole of the state should be wiped out.
