FEAR has once again gripped residents of Rigasa community on the
outskirts of Kaduna, as a gun battle between suspected terrorists and
the military claimed the life of a soldier on Sunday night.
The gun battle, which lasted several hours in the troubled area,
according to a source, happened around 8.00 p.m, when suspected
terrorists started shooting at the soldiers.
“The armed soldiers, led by an officer, did not waste time as they
returned fire. The soldiers also killed one of the terrorists while
others escaped with injuries,” the source said.
