Sugun Mai Mele, the commissioner for local governments, said the incident occurred around 270 kilometers (167 miles) from the state capital, Maiduguri.

He also led a delegation on behalf of Governor Babagana Umara Zulum, who is currently on an official trip abroad, to commiserate with the victims' families.

''We are here at the instance of His Excellency, Governor Babagana Umara Zulum, who is out of the country on an official assignment, to condole with the people of Malam Fatori over the recent unfortunate attack,'' a statement said.

He assured that the Borno state government and the military will do everything possible to secure the community.

''Malam Fatori is one local government area that we are committed to ensuring its stability because of its strategic importance, urging the people to be more resilient and prayerful to avert future incidents,'' the statement said.

The commissioner added that excavators would be deployed to dig trenches around the local government headquarters to ward off future attacks by Boko Haram holy warriors.

He also warned residents against any form of collaboration with holy warriors, saying anyone found guilty would face consequences.

To support each of the victims' families, 500,000 naira ($326) was given, while the four injured victims received 250,000 naira ($163) each.
