Two men were reportedly caught hugging each other and celebrating the bomb blast at a Mosque in Maiduguri, Borno.
The suicide bombing, which happened around 5am, on Friday morning has so far, claimed 28 lives.
Umar Sani, a civilian vigilante and local resident Musa Sheriff, both revealed to AFP, details of the blast.
Sani said: “People from various mosques nearby rushed to the scene to assist the victims.
“I was involved in the evacuation. We counted 28 dead bodies apart from the two bombers, who were identifiable by the mutilation of their bodies. Over 20 other people were injured.”
Furthermore, Sani stated that shortly after the bomb went off, two men were seen hugging themselves and celebrating the attack.
He added that they were apprehended and handed to the police.
“The two men were standing from afar, hugging each other like a celebration, chanting Allahu Akbar”(God is greatest). The rescuers apprehended them. They used ropes to tie them and they confirmed that two of their comrades carried out the attacks. They were unrepentant.”
