An Eyewitness Account: How Female Suicide Bomber Entered FCE Kontagora by larryjimmy7: 2:59pm On Nov 17, 2014
Miss Fasilat Oludege Ajoke, a 29-year-old
undergraduate of the Federal College of Education
(FCE), Kontagora, Niger State, had no
premonition that last Wednesday would be her last
day on earth. On that fateful day, like other
students, she had gone for her semester exams.

After her paper that morning, the late Ajoke, an
English/Education student left the college
auditorium for her hostel. It was learnt that she
hurriedly left the auditorium because she wanted
to ease herself at the hostel; but unknown to her,
the cruel hands of death waited for her.

According to an eyewitness, the suicide bomber
had approached Ajoke about 12:30pm as she
headed to the hostel and enquired of the way to
the college auditorium or library. Little did the
student know that the bomber concealed
explosives under her veil.

The bomber was, however, unable to get to her
target before the explosive on her detonated,
killing her and Ajoke in the process. Ajoke, who
was just few meters away from the suicide bomber
after parting ways, was hit by the blast. A well
known disabled beggar in the college, who had
approached them for alms, was also hit by the
blast.

In a statement signed by the spokesperson to the
Niger State governor, Israel Ebije, the governor,
Dr. Muazu Babangida Aliyu, condemned the attack,
describing it as a dastardly act. He, however,
thanked God that the casualty figure was quite
low. He urged the people of Kontagora and
indeed, Niger State to remain calm as they go
about their businesses.

He said a full scale investigation had commenced
on the incident, and called on the people of Niger
State to always keep vigil and take note of strange
faces in their communities.

The police public relations officer, Niger State
command, DSP Ibrahim Gambari, while confirming
the incident, said the police were on top on the
situation and investigation had begun.
