Boko Haram insurgents abducted some passengers along the Damaturu-Maiduguri road yesterday.

The incident happened in the Jakana axis of the road.

Military sources told TheCable that the insurgents attacked the army’s 28 task force brigade in the area, and while they were being engaged, they turned on travellers plying the road.

“They attempted to attack the military base, but the troops gave them a run,” one of the sources said.

“While they were retreating to the bush, they got to the highway and abducted some passengers they ran into the bush with.

“Soldiers are still tracing them in order to rescue those abducted.”

Another source said the axis is becoming deadlier as the insurgents now target travellers.

“Anything from 2pm, it becomes dangerous to use that road. That’s why we advise our people traveling to make it early in the morning,” he said.
