Several hours
after the attack on Damaturu, Yobe state killing five persons, another suicide
bomber Tuesday night hit a military checkpoint at the airport junction in
Maiduguri, Borno State.
The event took place at about 10.30p.m. near the
Maiduguri Airport, killing a guards commander whose identity was withheld for
security reasons.
It was reported that some of the military personnel,
mostly airmen, were already relieved to travel and meet with their families
when the dastardly act took place.
“This is tragic. Do you know that our signal came out Monday
afternoon for changes. We were already thanking God after eight months we were
going to see our love ones again. We were to be withdrawn on the September 3,
2015 but see what has happened to our friend. It is so painful and unbearable,”
one of the officers said.
