A suicide bomber supposed to be Boko
Haram member has attacked the main
checkpoint on the suburbs of the Borno state
capital, Maiduguri on July 13, Monday.
According to military sources an
explosive device have been buried very
close to a checkpoint.
A witness said the blast happened at
Njimtilo, a village several kilometres to
the gate of Maiduguri, where soldiers,
customs and immigration officers, police
and members of the civilian-JTF base one
of the biggest checkpoints in the city.
“The blast occurred at 12:30pm at the
Njimtilo checkpoint; no one was reported
dead but some Civilian-JTF members were
injured,” said a police officer.
“It was not a suicide bomb from what I
observed. I guess the bomb was either
buried or dropped near the place.”
A JTF member at the scene said that
suicide attacker was in the bus.
He added that after passengers had left it,
the driver drove forward to another
check point in the southwest of
Maiduguri where the bomb exploded.
One civilian lost his life while three
others were injured.
Since President Muhammadu Buhari’s
took the office on May 29, there has been
a rise in the number of attacks and
bombings across Nigeria, especially in
Borno state.
