Boko Haram Onslaught on Bama: Two Soldiers, 22 policemen, 14 Prison Warders, 13 Terrorists Killed In Military Barracks Fight With PHOTOS


By SaharaReporters, New York
Military sources have told SaharaReporters that Tuesday’s unprecedented onslaught on Bama by suspected Boko Haram terrorists resulted in the death of two soldiers and 13 of the invaders during the fight at the military barracks.
At the police barracks, a woman and two children were burnt to death, our sources said.
They also confirmed that 22 policemen were shot dead by the terrorists at the Divisional Police Station, and 14 prison officials killed at Bama Prison Station.
“The attack was repelled by soldiers on sentry a little distance from the Barrack’s Fence,” one of them said, appearing to be downplaying the severity of the incident at the military facility.
SaharaReporters had earlier been told by sources that security agencies were still counting the numbers of the dead, and that several police were killed in the attack in which the militants released as many as 150 prisoners in Bama Prison.  All the warders on duty were reported to have died.
SaharaReporters has also learned that the following structures were attacked and burnt:
·      The Police Area Command and Divisional Police Station;
·      Bama Prison Station;
·      Magistrate Court;
·      Primary Health Centre, and
·      Police/MOPOL Barracks
The following items were recovered: 3 AK 47 Rifles; 8 RPG launchers; 3 RPG Bombs, and eight magazines
Earlier today, security sources told SaharaReporters that today’s brazen attack on military, prison and police formations in Bama is perhaps the biggest undertaken by Boko Haram militants.
In an attack on Bama on April 26, suspected Boko Haram terrorists killed a Divisional Police Officer and scores of police officers.
Three days later, on April 29, a Boko Haram/JTF duel resulted in the death of 17 persons.  About 200 homes were reportedly burnt to the ground.
