Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).
A large portion of the Madafuma Bridge
was damaged, thereby making it
impossible to link Maiduguri from Biu,
Garkida, Numam and parts of Taraba.
A resident, Mallam Musa Yakubu, said
the incident took place on Saturday at
about 2am.
Read more after the cut
“We heard a loud bang and when we
gathered in Madafuma village we
found out that the bridge linking us
with Biu Local Government Area and
MA Dara Girau had been blown off.
Motorists heading for Maiduguri
from Biu especially long vehicles, had
no option than to turn back to
Gombe. Small vehicles managed to
pass through the remaining thin
portion which has not been affected
by the blast.”
