Gunmen suspected to be Boko Haram militants yesterday opened
fire at private and commercial vehicles along the Maiduguri-Damboa road in
Borno State.
Vehicles going to southern part of the state from Maiduguri,
the capital, usually escorted by the security personnel, assembled at Molai on
the outskirts of the city where they were attacked.
There, Daily Trust on Sunday learnt that shortly before
taking off, some gunmen suddenly appeared and shot sporadically, killing scores
and injuring many.
