Posted by Lolade on Wed 14th Oct, 2015 - tori.ngA fresh suicide bomb attack occurred in Maiduguri last night leaving seven persons dead and several others badly injured.
According to reports, a new set of suicide bombers hit the terrorism ravashed town of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital on Tuesday night, October 13, killing at least seven persons and leaving several others severely injured.
Residents of the town said three suicide bombers were on the prowl at Sajeri area of the town at about 8:30p.m, detonating explosive devices strapped on them.
An eyewitness in yesterday’s attack, Ibrahim Abdullahi, who spoke with THISDAY on phone, said: “I just left the area where the explosion happened when I heard three loud bang that shook the entire area.
“Curiosity made me to return to see if some of the people I left at the vicinities were not killed in the explosion, but when I got there I saw at least seven corpses been evacuated and dozens of injured were been assisted.
“I cannot tell if they are female or male suicide bombers for now, but the youth vigilante members and soldiers were involved in evacuating the corpses,” he said.
According to Abdullahi, the three explosions were few metres away from each other, adding that many people were still in fear in the area believing that there could be another explosion.
