A gang of suspected Boko Haram terrorists in gun trucks and on motorcycles attacked the Customs House and killed an officer in Geidam Local Council of Yobe State.
A community leader, Bukar Modu, who confirmed the incident, yesterday, in Geidam, said: “The insurgents struck when they ensured that the Customs’ personnel had closed from work last Friday.He said that some of the officers escaped through the gate, while others scaled over the perimeter fence.
“The military and other security agencies are not taking measures against the activities of terrorists in border communities,” he lamented. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has directed that the new Student Loan Scheme he signed into law earlier in the year should take off fully in Nigeria by January 2024.
The President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers , Alhaji Tajudeen Baruwa, has accused the Minister of Labour and Employment, Solomon Lalong, of bias by taking side with the Alhaji Tajudeen Agbede’s led group in the ongoing reconciliation process of the union.
