President Bola Tinubu and the United States Diplomatic Mission in Nigeria on Sunday condemned the recent bomb attacks in the Gwoza Local Government Area (LGA) of Borno State, which resulted in the loss of 18 lives and injured over 30 others.
The attacks, carried out by four suicide bombers on Saturday, have been described as “desperate acts of terror” by the president.
The State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) reported that four suicide bombers detonated improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Gwoza, Borno State. More than 30 people were injured in the attack, which was one of the most deadly in the state in recent months. The severity of injuries ranges from abdominal ruptures to skull and limb fractures.
