Several Killed In Triple Blast In Borno

Terrorists struck again in Maiduguri, Borno State capital on Saturday killing at least 33 persons following three separate bomb attacks.

AFP reports that the first attack by a female suicide bomber at about 11:20 am killed 18 people at the Baga fish market, and another 15 were killed about an hour later at the Monday Market, according to the fisherman’s union boss Abubakar Gamandi, in an account supported by other witnesses and a health worker. “A female suicide bomber exploded as soon as she stepped out of a motorised rickshaw,” said Gamandi, who was at the scene. “Eighteen people were killed.”
