One terrorist has been killed by policemen who repelled an attack in Jibia Local Government Area of Katsina State.

While some of the terrorists escaped with gunshot injuries, two police officers also sustained various degrees of injury.

Katsina Police Command spokesman SP Gambo Isah said the terrorists who carried out the attack around 4:30am on Monday, January 2, shot sporadically with AK-47 rifles and attacked a Police Nipping Point at Magama-Hirji Junction along Jibia-Katsina Road.
