Victims of the 27 January 2016 bomb attacks in Chibok 30 January 2016
It would be recalled that in our Wednesday 27 January 2016 release, we communicated that the suicide bomb attacks in Chibok that had some killed and others wounded, but said that the identities of the victims were yet to be ascertained.
Our sources in Chibok have relayed the names and identities of all the victims: 15 deaths (including that of soldier of the Nigerian army). Some died on the spot, others eventually; and 49 injured, some at critical stages.
Two of the victims of the attacks are cousins of Aishatu Musa, one our 219 missing Chibok girls. Both are daughters of Mutah Adamu Ntikawar. One died on the spot, the other is in a critical condition presently.
