Female Bomber hit Potiskum GSM market, kills four
Female bomber hit Potiskum
At least four people were killed
this afternoon when a female suicide
bomber detonated her explosives at GSM
market in Potiskum, Yobe State.
This is coming as the Nigerian Military have
intensified its operations in Nigeria’s
northeast.
A statement by the defence headquarters
revealed that a large number of terrorists
drowned in the Lake Chad as they fled the
heavy bombardment by Nigerian Air force
heralding the advance of Nigerian troops
on mission to flush them out of Baga.
Not even the strategy of mining over 1500
spots with land mines on the routes leading
to the town could save the terrorists from
the aggressive move of advancing troops.
All the land mines were skillfully cleared
one after the other. Eventually, the
resistance of the terrorists collapsed and
the land forces finally stormed the town in
the early hours of Friday.
However, in today’s attack by the terrorists,
scores of civilians were injured in the
suicide bombing.
Security experts said the
bombing is seen as a manipulative strategy
by the terrorists to show they still have the
capacity to strike at any time.
