The remains of the suicide bombers being evacuated by emergency workers
Three female teenage suicide bombers last night attempted to attack a military outpost popularly known as “Gontanamo” along Muna garage in Maiduguri, Bono State.
After being sighted by the troops in their desperate attempt to gain access to the premises at about 10:05 p.m., “the bombers were shot, leading to the explosion of their concealed IED,” says a PRNigeria report.
The report quotes the Spokesperson of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) in the North-East, Abdulkadir Ibrahim, as confirming that the corpses of the suicide bombers were evacuated by joint NEMA/BOSEMA Emergency Response teams.
Abdulkadir said: “We have evacuated the corpses of female teenagers. One security personnel who was injured is being treated.”
