There was an attack on Potiskum cattle market in Yobe State yesterday by suspected armed robbers who threw explosives and burnt down the market with all the livestock, so far people recorded dead are 34 and many injured.
The attack late Wednesday was said to be in reprisal for an incident earlier in the day, when the gang sought to rob the market but were fought off by traders who caught one of the attackers, doused in petrol and a tyre was placed around his neck and was burnt to death. The gunmen went to reinforce and came back, but this time they did not come to rob but to kill and destroy said a police source said.
