A suicide bomber allegedly tried to detonate a device on the Mosque at Tashshar Marghi area, Gombi, Adamawa State, Monday morning.
ThisDay reports that apart from this, area locals were also enveloped with fear for sighting a military hovercraft depositing bombs in the surrounding bushes.
An eyewitness confirmed both developments saying that the bomber failed to accomplish the mission and met his waterloo from hunters.
“Early hours of Monday during the dawn prayers, a suicide bomber carrying two explosives have been shot and killed by local hunters.”
The witness added that tension intensified among the residents when they saw the hovercraft depositing what looked like bombs behind the Walawa hills. It later turned out that those were expired bombs.
“After a long time encircling the town, the hovercraft finally deposited weapons suspected to be bombs behind the Gombi hills, which at first we thought they were depositing real bombs but later we were told that the military were depositing expired bombs.”
Adamawa Public Relations Officer, police command DSP Othman Abubakar, confirmed the report and assured locals that the dropped bombs were harmless for them.
