Information coming from  Joint Task Force (JTF) in Maiduguri says that a remote-controlled Improvised Explosive Device (IED) planted by terrorists and targeted at JTF patrol vehicles killed one soldier and wounded two others.

Speaking on the matter, JTF spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Sagir Musa confirmed that the explosion was at a branch of First Bank/Mr Bigs Round About in Maiduguri at about 12AM. He said: “The area was cordoned off and swept by the Bomb Disposal Arm of the JTF to avoid possible further explosion of undetonated bombs on poor innocent civilians.”
