A lone suicide bomber was today gunned down by gallant Nigerian soldiers as the terrorist tried to attack the university. Soldiers on duty around the University of Maiduguri have gunned down a suicide bomber, averting what would have been a tragic suicide attack, Channels Television has reported.
The incident reportedly took place today. It was gathered that the suicide bomber, strapped with an Improvised Explosive Device (IED)made his entrance through the University Printing Press but was sighted and taken out by the soldiers leading to the explosion of the strapped device.
