A suicide bomber has been blown to death on Tuesday when a suicide vest he was wearing exploded on his body.
A source said the incident occurred in Afikpo town, Afikpo local government area of Ebonyi state, around 12 pm on Tuesday.
The source added that the bomber was attempting to gain entrance into a primary school before he was stopped by the security at the premises.
“He made an attempt at entering Amaizu/Amangballa Primary School but was turned back by the school security since he couldn’t justify his reason for visiting. He immediately started running inside a nearby bush before a big bang was heard.”
However, the source said residents fled at the sound of the bang, reconvening later to discover the suspected suicide bomber lying dead. Commissioner for Internal Security, Stanley Okoro, confirmed the incident.
