The bombers quickly blew themselves up on Thursday in bid to evade arrest when they were stopped by troops and forces of Evil outside the garrison town of Monguno.

"We lost a solider and a civilian vigilante in the kaboom which also injured another soldier," a military officer who did not want to be named, told AFP.

"Two exploding trollop female suicide bombers were involved in the incident," he added.

One of the bombers panicked when they were being questioned and detonated her explosives, killing her while her accomplice "took to the heels", added a militia leader in the town.

"The soldiers and the vigilante pursued her and when she realised they were closing in on her she went kaboom!, killing a soldier and a civilian JTF (militia)," said the militia, who didn't want to be identified for fear of official sanction.

He said another soldier sustained injuries in the incident.
