4 Suicide bombers attacked Molai community in Maiduguri the Borno state capital, this morning killing at least 22 persons.
According to LEADERSHIP, the early morning suicide attack came barely 12 hours after two male suicide bombers attacked Maiduguri killing people who were praying in a mosque.
A Red Cross official that was at the scene of the incident said, “We have 22 dead bodies including that of the female suicide bombers at the scene blast”.
Narrating how the early morning blast happened, Abba Khalil, a top official of the Civilian-JTF said, ''The women were seen trying to sneak through the bush paths along the Maiduguri-Biu road, but soldiers at the checkpoint were able to spot them after receiving some vital intelligence from informants”, said Abba Khalil, a top official of the Civilian-JTF.
''The women refused to obey soldiers orders to halt movement, so the soldiers opened fire on them. One of the women was unfortunately able to detonate her explosive, which triggered the ones on the bodies of the three others that were shot down. The shrapnel from the bullet had however killed many persons and injured about 14 villagers in the nearby community. We have rushed the victims to the hospital where they are currently receiving treatment”.
