Gunmen, early Monday, attacked the headquarters of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS,
in Abuja leading to a shoot-out for many hours.
The men are believed to be members of the Boko Haram who attempted to free their members
being held by the police.
PREMIUM TIMES learnt that the attack was repelled by the police. No casualty has been reported
This daring attack is coming less than 24 hours after suspected Boko Haram members detonated
explosives at a church in a major military training compound in Jaji, Kaduna State.
A man, who claimed to be a senior member of the sect told PREMIUM TIMES, Monday, that
“we (the group) have put our house in order and Nigerians have not seen anything yet.”
Police Force spokesperson, Frank Mba, could not be reached for comments.
