How Two Female Suicide Bombers Blew Themselves Up In Maiduguri

Two female suicide bombers have blown themselves up at a crowded market in northern Nigeria's Maiduguri city, killing at least 30 people

 One teenage girl blew herself up first and as people gathered to help victims, the second girl detonated herself 

The girls, dressed in full hijab, entered the busy market and detonated their explosives, said Abba Aji Kalli, the coordinator of a government-backed vigilante group in Borno



The first bomber killed about three women, he said.
When people gathered at the scene, the second bomber screamed and blew herself up, killing about 30, Mr Kalli added.

Militant Islamist group Boko Haram is waging an insurgency in Nigeria. It was based in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno state, after its formation in 2002, but it has since been driven out of the city by the military and vigilante groups.
