… Three injured
The Adamawa Commissioner of Information and Strategy, Malam Ahmad Sajoh, said one person was killed and three others injured in Friday’s bomb blasts in Madagali local government area of the state.
Sajoh told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the low level of casualty was due to the precautionary measures introduced by the state government to contain incidents of suicide attacks in Madagali.
He said the massive enlightenment campaign on security consciousness had helped in identifying suicide bombers in the area before they reached their destination on market days.
“We lost only one life while three people sustained injuries and are now receiving treatment at the Michika General Hospital.
“Government has taken measures to cater for the injured and their relations staying with them at the hospital,” the commissioner said.
While commending security agencies and the public for their commitment to the fight against the insurgents, Sajoh said the government would not fail them in its responsibility of protecting lives and property.
