Four persons were said to have died during a suicide attack on a mosque in Gwoza, southern Borno State
Gwoza was, at the peak of the ongoing Boko Haram insurgency, the administrative capital and caliphate of the terrorist group.
It was learnt that the suicide bomber ran into a group of worshippers during an early morning prayer
A source, who could not ascertain if it was a male or female, said the suicide bomber was lost along with three worshippers in the mosque.
He said several other persons were injured in the explosion which shook the mosque.

Another source in one of the humanitarian communities in Borno State told The PUNCH in confidence, “I received Information of suicide bomb attack this morning in Gwoza, the attack was said to have happened in a mosque. Three people including the suicide bomber were killed.”
