Gunmen bomb more telecom masts, kill 16 in Yobe

These guys are at it again!!

Barely 24 hours after bombing 15 masts of four Global System of Mobile Communication (GSM) firms in Borno state, the violence however, spread to neighbouring Yobe state, setting ablaze the service-base masts of Airtel, Glo and Etisalat in Potiskum and Damaturu, with Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and petrol-bombs in the early hours of Today.
Besides the torching of GSM masts, the gunmen, suspected to be members of the Boko Haram sect, killed 16 people, including the Yobe state government protocol officer, Mallam Adamu, while returning from his duty post at the Government House, Damaturu.
Sad!!
The Joint Taskforce (JTF) in the state confirmed that four suspects have been arrested and are being interrogated in connection with the recent attacks.
The suspects according to the JTF were arrested along Gujba road in an attempt to lunch another attack on a mast along the road.
