The Nigerian Army has confirmed the killing of 14 persons,
including four suicide bombers, in a bomb explosion at
Sajeri area of Maiduguri in Borno.
The acting Army spokesman, Col. Sani Usman, confirmed
the incident in a statement made available to the News
Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Friday.
Usman said that 39 other persons were injured in the
explosion which occurred near the Ajilari railway crossing on
Thursday evening.
According to the statement, security operatives and
emergency management team have been mobilised to take
care of the wounded persons.
“Although details of the attack are still sketchy, suffice it to
state that four Boko Haram terrorists detonated their vests
simultaneously.
“Three of the terrorists detonated their bombs in the same
area while the fourth detonated in front of a mosque.
“It has been confirmed that 14 people have lost their lives,
including the suicide bombers while 39 others were
wounded,’’ the statement said.
Usman appealed to residents of the metropolis, especially
those in the affected areas, to remain calm and continue to
be vigilant as security operatives were in control of the
situation.
He assured the public that Boko Haram had been decimated
and therefore had no capacity to reverse the progress
already made in the ongoing counter-insurgency operations.
In a related development, the Army announced that 80 Boko
Haram fighters on Thursday surrendered to troops of the
Army 7 Division in Bama Local Government Area of Borno.
The Army said the repentant terrorists comprised
commanders, foot soldiers and the terrorists’ food suppliers.
It said that the terrorists surrendered as a result of the
intense heat put on them by joint forces operating in
different theaters in the North-East.
“The terrorists among whom were commanders, suppliers
and foot soldiers confirmed to have taken part in several
terrorists attacks especially on Bama town, Borno,
surrendered,’’ the statement said.
The army attributed its success to intense heat and the
continuous offensive embarked upon by troops.
“It will be recalled that we have repeatedly stated that
surrender is the only option available to the insurgents.
‘’The Nigerian Army and Nigerian Air Force, in conjunction
with other security agencies, are totally committed to the
achievement of the 3-month Presidential deadline for the
eradication of terrorism in Nigeria.
‘’Other terrorists are encouraged to also surrender or face
total annihilation, as the new name of the operation states
‘achievement of total peace is a must’,’’ it said. (NAN)

When Government says n people died, it means that it's actually 5n people that died. 5 is called the FG multiplier.

So, in this case it's 5 × 14 = 70

May their souls rest in peace
