4 Killed, 13 Wounded In Borno Suicide Bomb Attack

No fewer than four persons were killed in a suicide bomb attack today at Amarwa community of Konduga Local Government Area of Borno. Newsmen report that the incident occurred at about 2 p.m. when a male suicide bomber infiltrated the village and detonated an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) strapped to his body.

An eye witness, Bukar Fantai, told newsmen that the bomber managed to sneak into the village disguising as a grain merchant.

Fantai said that the insurgent first approached a shop keeper and offered sorghum for sale. He said the terrorist, thereafter, went to a shade where many villagers gathered for relaxation and detonated the explosive.
