Maiduguri, Borno

There have been at least two bomb blasts within Maiduguri, capital of Borno state, within the last 10 minutes.

A resident told TheCable that the first blast occurred at Gunge, a resident area, around 6pm.
According to a security source, the other blast happened around a place where cars are sold in the state capital.

It is unclear if Boko Haram insurgents are behind the attacks which happened 24 hours after the convoy of Babagana Zulum, the governor, was attacked in Kukawa local government area of the state.

Boko Haram has continued to operate in different parts of the north-east, especially in Borno state despite the claim of the government that the sect has been defeated.

Reacting to the attack on his convoy, Zulum had said he would mobilise hunters to protect the people if the military is unable to secure them.
“We have over 1,181 soldiers in Baga; 72 officers, 107 solders, 400 soldiers in mile 4 and 1,900 soldiers in Monguno. I see no reason why Boko Haram will stop operate in Baga town,” he had said.

“The troops have been in mile 4 for over one year, there is complete sabotage, the problem is not with President Buhari, or General Burutai but the command and control structures. There is need to look into command structure.

“We have over 80,000 IDPs in Monguno, they cannot continue to depend on NGOs and others for food, we have created opportunity for them to go back to their communities and continue with their business and farming activities.

“After Sallah, we will go back to Kukawa. We we will give time to the military; but if they will not clear Baga, we will mobilise our hunters and vigilantes to recapture Baga… we can’t continue like this. People have take their destiny in their hands.”

Ok. I will tell them

Nigerians calm down.
We have technically defeated Boko boys

Calm down my good governor of Borno

The pampered repentant rats of Buhari Institute of Boko Boys are back to business...!

There is nothing like Repentant Boko Haram.
Once a Jihadist always a Jihadist.
Buhari stop wasting Niger Delta Oil Money on Northern Islamic Terrorists.

Some people think bombings and killings are only restricted to the North East. They play around with every heartbreaking headlines they see. And one thing I've come to realise about Nigerians is that they don't take action until the worse hits them terribly. There's war going on; it's not only confided to the North and Christians. Let's rescue ourselves as if we are drowning all together. if Nigeria's leaders don't mean good to us, let's tire ourselves all together to mean good to ourselves. Enough of all these shits!

Buhari's boys doing their thing
Nice one buhari's boys.

Not justifying the act, though. But I think a lot could be linked to the killing of the officer by the soldier.

Someone knows something.

We are still in Genesis and they have started gnashing their teeth, what will happened when we eventually reached Habakuk.
Enjoy your new repented (holy) boko haram.

I'm as shocked as Buhari

may the souls of the departed rest in peace.

there shall be nl peace for the wicked

I pity our soldiers o!

Humn! repentant & forgiven terrorists @ work.Buratai continue.

It's not my damn business.

Prayers for our Northern Brethren...

May The Mercies of God sort things out over there in Jesus Name... Amen

oga it would be more useful if you find your way to maiduguri and "lead those boko haram terrorists to Christ" as you like to say, instead of saying prayers online like God logs in to nairaland to check prayers.
