Boko haram Suicide bombers killed 10 in Chibok.

 

 No fewer than 10 people were killed on Wednesday when three suicide bombers blew themselves up in Chikok, the town in Borno state where 276 female students were kidnapped by suspected Boko Haram terrorists on April 15, 2014. An elder of Chibok town, Ayuba Chibok, told AFP on Wednesday that the blasts happened at about midday (1100 GMT) as the remote town in Borno state was packed with traders from surrounding villages for the weekly market. “They were suicide
attacks. The first bomber set off his explosives at the checkpoint where people coming into the town were being searched,” he added. “A second bomber managed to get into the market and blew himself up. A third bomber was identified and residents pursued him. “When he realised he was about to be apprehended he detonated his explosives in an area not far from the market.

Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari on December 24 declared the rebels were “technically” defeated but at least 66 people were then killed in raids and suicide bombings in the days following. On Monday, 32 people were killed when at least three suicide bombers blew themselves up at a market in Bodo village in northern Cameroon.
