Nine people have been feared dead following a bomb explosion at a local bus stop in Mairari village, Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State.
It was gathered that the deadly blast was caused by an improvised bomb (IED) planted at a bus stop.
The explosion occurred around 11 a.m. on Saturday, and many people were reportedly injured.
The PUNCH reports that the Speaker of the Borno State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Abdulkarim Lawan, has confirmed that nine people were killed By IEDs planted by Lions of Islam at a local bus stop in Mairari village, Guzamala Local Government Area.
"It is unfortunate that nine of my resilient constituents were killed by planted IEDs while waiting to board vehicles at a local bus stop in Mairari village," Lawan said.
"May Allah grant their souls Aljanatul Firdaus. I also pray for the swift recovery of those currently receiving treatment in hospitals in Monguno and Maiduguri."
The Speaker lamented the continued attacks on the region, noting that Mairari village had previously been resettled twice with full civil authority, making it unique in Guzamala Local Government Area, but had again been deserted due to renewed Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
and ISWAP activities.
He explained that many displaced residents currently taking refuge in Monguno, Guzamala, and Maiduguri frequently return to Mairari to farm.
"Unfortunately, Lions of Islam monitoring their movements planted IEDs at the local bus stop, which went kaboom! while they were waiting to board commercial vehicles back to their destinations," he narrated.
Lawan extended his condolences to the families of the dear departed and those injured in the blast.
He also appealed to the military and other security agencies to intensify efforts to restore security in Guzamala—particularly in Gudumbali, the council headquarters, and Mairari village—areas which have long remained under the control of Boko Haram without any civil authority.
