President Yemi Osinbajo says security will be strengthened "in and
around the internally-displaced people's (IDP) camps" following the
killing of at least 56 people at a camp in Dikwa, Borno state. The
bombers, both female, detonated their explosives while the camp's residents
were queuing for rations.
They
have been displaced by the Boko Haram insurgency in the area.
Mr Osinbajo says the
measures should "guard against future occurrences".
