Boko Haram on Saturday attacked Gombe
metropolis, the capital of Gombe State, North-East Nigeria in an attempt
to take-over the town.
The insurgents launched an early morning
attack on Hina and Dadin Kowa in Yamaltu Deba Local Government Area of
the state but were repelled by the military. They later launched another attack on nearby Zambuk but were again repelled.

filed this report on Saturday, a fierce battle was going on between the
terrorists and men of the Nigerian Army at the 301 Artillery Regiment,
Gombe, according to a resident who volunteered information anonymously.
Meanwhile, the sect has sent leaflets to
residents in the state, on Saturday, threatening to bomb voters at
