Attempt by Boko Haram members on Friday morning to free its members from the Giwa Barracks in Maiduguri, Borno State was quelled by vigilant security personnel on duty.

The attack occurred at about 7.30am on Friday.

The insurgents, it was learnt, invaded the area through Bama road. But contrary to reports that they launched an attack on the University of Maiduguri, DailyPost was informed that the members only used the school bypass to reach the Barracks.

They however, fired several shots as they moved speedily.

A source within the security circles told our reporter in Abuja that the sect had attempted to release a number of leaders arrested and detained in the barracks.
