How Boko Haram Bomb Maker Killed Self

A Boko Haram bomb maker, Awana Gaidam, has been confirmed dead after he reportedly stepped on an Improvised Explosive Device he made for the terrorist group.

According to reports available to NIGERIACRIME, the deceased was responsible for the death of many troops through his IED attacks along major highways in Borno.

He was said to have planted the IED that killed him for the Nigerian troops in Borno State.

The reason for planting multiple IEDs in strategic positions of his camp within the Sambisa Forest was to wade off attacks from the troops, reports says.

However, a source revealed that the bomb maker was blown to pieces on Monday after his vehicle stepped on the IED along Njumia and Arra in Sambisa Forest.

“Since 2022, Boko Haram and Islamic State of West Africa Province have carried out more than 90 indiscriminate attacks in the North-East using Improvised Explosive Devices.

“The insurgents resorted to the use of IEDs as a result of the increased and sustained pressure by the joint efforts of the Nigerian Army, Air Task Force, Operation Hadin Kai with support of the combined troops of the Multination Joint Task Force, Niger, Cameroon and Chad in the Lake Chad sub-region.

“Therefore, the killing of Awana represents a serious blow to the operational capability of the Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād, terrorists group,” the source said.
