While suspecting the ulterior motive of the suicide bomber with his strange behaviour, the security operatives attempted to accustom him.
But in his attempt to detonate the explosive device, he was gunned down by the security.
Eyewitnesses say that the transit camp is used to check and screen potential displaced people before being allowed into any of the IDP Camps in Maiduguri and others in Borno State.
The spokesperson of National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, in the North-East, Mr. Ibrahim Abdulkadir confirmed that the mangled body of the suicide bomber had been evacuated.
