The Joint Task Force (JTF) Squad has repelled the Boko Haram attackers who were attacking the Yobe state capital, Damaturu.
The Islamic terror Group, trooped in large numbers, exploding bombs and shooting sporadically.
Eye witness report said that they were targeting to overrun the Governor's residence, but the superior fire power of the JTF has destroyed most of them.
The capital is now getting calmer, as the JTF has taken over all the arras now.
Casualty figure is still unknown.
