Soldiers, yesterday, shot a suspected suicide
bomber dead outside a Military base in
Maiduguri, Borno State, according to a civilian
vigilante and a military source. Explosives
concealed in the suspect’s handbag detonated in
the process.
It was believed that the target of the suspect was
the Maimalari Army Barracks, the main military
base in Maiduguri, which had been hit
repeatedly in recent months by Boko Haram
terrorists.
“Soldiers at Maimalari Army Barracks this
morning (yesterday) foiled a suicide attack by a
female bomber,” Babakura Kolo, a member of
the civilian volunteer force assisting troops
against the rebels, said.
“The woman approached the barracks around
7a.m. and headed towards the gates.
“Guards at the gates asked her to stop for
security checks, but she ignored them and
continued walking towards the gates, a handbag
slung over her shoulder.
“One of the soldiers opened fire on the woman
and the handbag exploded, blowing the woman
to pieces,” he said.
A military officer in the city described the
incident as an “attempted suicide attack by Boko
Haram terrorists,” reports Vanguard.
The military source, who requested anonymity,
said the use of human bombs was a sign of the
group’s desperation and frustration.
“They are looking for every opportunity to hit
back, which is why they have resorted to soft-
target attacks on mosques and markets and such
attacks on a military base is intended to show
the terrorists are still strong,” he added.
