While competent security sources say at least 15 persons died while 55 others sustained injuries, the Operation Lafiya Dole is saying a different thing.

The insurgents parked their vehicles few meters away from a security check point and sneaked into the community, the sources narrated.
Security operatives engaged in fierce gun battle with the insurgents who detonated Improvised Explosive Devices  (IEDs) and shot sporadically.
“Dozens of people including women and children were wounded from the explosion and gun shots.
“Due to darkness dead bodies were not evacuated immediately because there were suicide bombers among the attackers,” the added.
However, the Commander of the Theatre Command of Operation Lafiya Dole, Maj-Gen. Rogers Nicholas, denied any death on the side of his soldiers or civilians in the attack.
The commander said some of the Boko Haram insurgents were killed, but he could not give the figure.
“That’s not correct.  There was an attack which was repelled and some Boko Haram insurgents were killed by gallant soldiers.
