Boko Haram turns from People, Starts fight against GSM Masts in the North

MTN and Airtel are reporting that their mobile phone masts are coming under attack from gunmen in northern Nigeria who may be trying to elude police trackers through their phones.

A Reuters reporter said he saw 10 masts burned to the ground on Wednesday morning in the northern Nigerian cities of Kano and Maiduguri where Islamists are waging a low-level insurgency against the Goodluck Jonathan government.

Destruction of the phone masts disrupted service for local residents on their mobiles.

Similarly, in Kano, Nigeria’s second largest city, men on motorbikes destroyed MTN and Airtel mobile phone masts in the early hours of Wednesday, a policeman told Reuters, asking not to be named. He said Boko Haram was suspected to be behind the attack.

“We confirm that like all the other major telcos, some of MTN’s installations in northern Nigeria have been damaged by unknown persons,” spokeswoman Funmilayo Omogbenigun said.

Is this a game plan by Boko Haram or a sign of weekness to do something sine JTF might actually be closing them down or they want to destry mast so that people cant communicate when they attack.....hmmm
