Standup9ja gathered that at least, 15 other persons
sustained injuries as a result of the attack.

Dalori is a suburban town near Maiduguri, Borno, Nigeria.
Since March 2015, it hosts one of the largest internally displaced persons camp
created during the Boko Haram insurgency, with more than 15,000 people, most of
them coming from the South-East of Borno State.
Dalori camp is located on the road from Maiduguri to
Konduga, Bama and the border between Nigeria and Cameroon, 15 kilometers
South-East of Maiduguri.
The camp has been targeted by many attacks from the Boko
Haram insurgency, including suicide attacks. The worst of these attacks
occurred on 30 January 2016, when at least 86 people were killed and at least
62 more injured.
The Nigerian Army yesterday, said troops of 103 Battalion,
Operation Lafiya Dole neutralized three female suicide bombers trying to
infiltrate their location at Kawuri, Konduga Local Government Area of Borno
State.
The Boko Haram insurgents have been using suicide attackers,
mostly girls, to hit their targets in recent times.
