IED kills one, injures 11 in Maiduguri — Police

The Borno Police Command has said that an Improvised Explosive Device in another attack in Maiduguri resulted in the death of one male victim, with 11 others sustaining various degrees of injuries.

The Police Commissioner, Yusuf Lawal, disclosed this on Friday while providing a situation report to the News Agency of Nigeria.

He said the incident occurred during a protest against bad governance at Deribe Junction near Federal Government Girls’ College Monguno Annex Bulumkutu area, Maiduguri.

Lawal said that the injured victims were taken to the State Specialist Hospital Maiduguri for treatment while the corpse was given for autopsy.

He said that the police swiftly deployed personnel of the Explosive Ordnance Device, Base 13, who probed the scene and rendered the area around a filling station safe.

“In a separate incident, a case of culpable homicide was reported in Biu local government area,” Lawal said.

The commissioner said that one Muhammad Wakshama reported that his son-in-law, Ibrahim Bulama, had a misunderstanding with his wife, Maryam Ibrahim, and hit her with a stick on the head, resulting in serious injury.

According to him, the victim was taken to the General Hospital Biu for treatment but was confirmed dead on Thursday.

He added that the suspect was arrested and an exhibit was recovered while the investigation was ongoing.
Lawal said that these incidents brought the total number of deaths in the state to 17 in the past 48 hours, with many others injured.

“The Borno command assures the citizens that investigations are ongoing and that normality has been restored,” he said.
