A suicide bomber, who rammed into a military checkpoint in Bajoga, Gombe State on Tuesday, failed to achieve his mission after hitting a military Armoured Personnel Carrier with his explosive laden Honda car.
His attempt to escape also failed, as he was brought down by vigilant soldiers after the explosives failed to detonate.
The Improvised Explosive Device had been evacuated and handed over to the police.
In another development in Kano, security forces raided a terrorists’ hideout in Nasarawa Local Government Area and arrested bomb making experts, who are already helping in the investigation into activities of bombers lately.
Officers believe that the efforts will yield useful clues.
Troops deployed in all locations of the counter terrorism campaign have been directed to sustain the tempo of operations all through the period of yuletide.
They were also asked to ensure that the intention of terrorists to attack civilian target while avoiding troops would be duly frustrated.
