Breaking News: Female Suicide Bombers Attack Borno

Barely 24 hours after a suicide bomber attacked a mosque in Maiduguri killing at least 18 worshippers, two female suicide bombers on Saturday found their way into a crowded suburb of the troubled city, with one of them succeeding in blowing off her self while the second got arrested and disarmed before she could trigger off the explosive belt worn under her garment, security sources and witnesses have told PREMIUM TIMES.

The incident happened in Dala-Yazare, a suburb located some 4km away from Maiduguri, along the Biu-Maiduguri road.

An operative of the Civillian-JTF, who asked not to be named, told PREMIUM TIMES on phone that “they were two suicide bombers, one was arrested now, but the other was able to detonate the bomb…”.

The source did not have much time to give details of how the second female suicide bomber was nabbed, neither did he give details of the extent of damage caused by the deafening blast that echoed over the city of Maiduguri at about 7:50am.

Details remain sketchy for now even as tension continues to mount in Maiduguri over the spate of suicide attacks that have now become a daily affair.
