Category: Terrorism News
It was gathered that the landmine set off a huge blast which badly damaged the four wheel drive and forcefully ejected some of the occupants of the vehicle.
PRNigeria reports that the workers, mostly engineers from the TCN and Yola Electricity Distribution Company (YEDC) were on their way to some sites to work on damaged facilities and restore electricity in Maiduguri and environs when their vehicle ran over the landmine.
The injured workers were evacuated to Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH) for medical attention.
Terrorists have disrupted power supply to Maiduguri and other parts of the Borno State in recent times with their incessant attacks on electricity facilities.
