The Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) reports that the attack was aborted by the combined swift response of the military and men of 401 air combat training group New Bussa.
Nigerian troops on Sunday morning reportedly repelled a terrorist attack on 221 Batallion Wawa Cantonment, New Bussa in the Borgu Local Government Area of Niger state.
The Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) reports that the attack was aborted by the combined swift response of the military and men of 401 air combat training group New Bussa.
However, at the time of filing this report, there was no official statement from the military to this effect.
But NTA correspondent in New Bussa, Kabir Abdullahi, added that there had been a restriction of movement between Wawa and New Bussa communities as the military has cordoned the area.
There have been fear and tension across the country in the past few days over the rising cases of terrorist attacks. The fears and tension have been heightened by the terror alert by the US, UK and Canadian commissions.
