It was gathered that the personnel of the Nigerian Army have embarked on a clearance operation after the attack. The incident was said to have caused gridlock in the area.

A military source who confirmed this on the condition of anonymity, said, “The terrorists took control of the area for over 30 minutes and kept on shooting before heading towards the Kaduna axis of the expressway,”
