Another round of suicide bombing attacks were averted in Maiduguri, Borno State on Friday as three suicide bombers were intercepted by the military just a kilometre into the troubled town.
“The three suicide bombers, two females and a male, attempted to infiltrate Maiduguri but were intercepted by vigilant men a kilometre ahead of the town, along Mafa road.”
Deputy commander of Operation Lafiya Dole, Brig.-General Lucky Irabor, added that one of the bombers on sighting the troops detonated the bomb on her, getting killed in the process alongside one other.
“The third one attempted to run at the checkpoint to detonate the bomb on him, but before he could get to the soldiers was shot.”
