The gunmen, according to eyewitnesses, entered the market and were spotted by a trader that saw weapons hidden under their garments. A 36-year-old grocery merchant in Maiduguri, Babagana Aji, said: “It was a trader that alerted them when he saw the armed men and they immediately trailed and rounded them up.

He went to say when they caught the men before they could bring out their guns. After they succeeded in disarming them, they beat them blue and black before handing them over to the soldiers. Masquerade234 gathered that the battled line against terrorist popularly called Boko Haram has been drawn.
