The source said that the terrorists on three Guntrucks, and one motorcycle were returning from the axis between Sabongari and Multe when one of its vehicle, a Toyota Hilux ran over an Improvised Explosive Device (IEDs).

The self-inflicted destruction consumed six of the Boko Haram terror group while others suffered severe injuries.
