Yunusa Abdullahi, a civil servant who lives in Jiddari Polo area of the city, told Premium Times that aside the mosque attack, two girls detonated explosives at a neighbourhood called Buraburin.

“A man saw two girls walking around and he tried to caution them to be careful as it was dangerous for them to be wandering when the two girls detonated themselves, killing the man and some other persons,” Abdullahi said. “Since last night, residents have been finding undetonated bombs believed to have been abandoned by Boko Haram gunmen. We are under siege and we don’t know how many of these bombs or these female suicide bombers were sneaked into Maiduguri.”
Recent happenings have shown that the city which is already ravaged by Boko Haram might not be done with attacks. Just yesterday, Sunday, December 27, three wives of a village head and their ten children were allegedly blown up by a female suicide bomber who attacked their home in Maiduguri, Borno state.
According to witnesses, the woman took advantage of the chaotic situation, as the troops were busy repelling the attack by Boko Haram on the metropolis. She pretended the terrorists were chasing her, and ran into the compound of a local, Bulama Isa, also known as the village head.
