The House of Representatives has
claimed that the female suicide bombers responsible for the killing of scores
in Borno State on Saturday were imported.
The lawmakers said this in a resolution after considering a motion
of urgent national importance by the member representing Gwoza/Chibok/Damboa
federal constituency, Ahmed Usman Jaha, on Tuesday.

While condemning the attack, Jaha
stated that findings showed that bombers were “recruited, brainwashed and
imported from outside the state” to carry out the suicide act in Gwoza.
He further argued that the bombings indicated the ongoing threat
of terrorism in the country. The lawmaker also informed the house that more
than 180 people were critically injured and currently receiving treatment in
various hospitals in the state.
The House then urged security agencies to intensify efforts to
prevent a recurrence.
It was recalled that a suicide bomb attack took place in Gwoza LGA in Borno, claiming
over 30 lives, and injuring others.
