Boko Haram Kills 4 At A Bar In Maiduguri by Bintus2much(m): 7:57pm On Sep 13, 2011 |
Suspected Islamists kill four at bar in northern Nigeria KANO, Nigeria — Gunmen killed four people at a bar in the troubled northern Nigerian city of Maiduguri in another of what has become incessant attacks blamed on an Islamist sect, police said Tuesday. "A group of gunmen stormed a beer parlour in Jajeri area last night and opened fire, killing four people and seriously wounding another," Borno state police chief Simeon Midenda told AFP of the Monday attack. There have been no arrests, but Midenda said "from all indications the attackers were from the Boko Haram sect". The sect, which has been blamed for scores of bomb blasts and shootings, mainly in the country's northeast, has claimed responsibility for the August suicide bomb attack on UN headquarters in Abuja which killed 23 people. In a separate incident, gunmen also shot an official of the city's rickshaw operators outside his house on Monday night, Midenda said. "Gunmen shot dead a spokesman of the tricycle taxi operators association," said Midenda. It was unclear why he was targeted, but rickshaws have become the main means of public transport in Maiduguri since July when the local government slapped a ban on motorcycles used as taxis. Attacks in the city were mostly carried out by motorcycle-riding gunmen who shot their victims or tossed bombs at their targets and sped off. Boko Haram, which launched an uprising in 2009 put down by a military assault, resurfaced last year targeting community leaders as well as members of the police, military and government. The attacks have since intensified and become more sophisticated, including the use of bombs. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5gXEKablH_91qY1YC8M-AeIv8mW3w?docId=CNG.77591e6bbe1ccd5c2f79f962f82a47ec.6e1 |

This has become so commonplace, i don't even get moved by these stories again which is quite unfortunate. May the dead rest in peace. I will stop clicking on these type of stories as long as it remains in the North! |

I keep hearing people accuse the president of being incompetent in this situation. Not saying that he is or not, but what exactly would any of you do in this situation that the President is not doing? He has deployed all the necessary security outfits, some of the best foreign agencies have been invited to help tackle the problem. The president does not have supernatural powers, he cannot wish the problem away. This form of terrorism is new to Nigeria, but every country that has faced this problem has had a lot of difficulty combating it. Truth be told, it's going to take a tremendous effort on the part of the security forces in Nigeria to quell this rebellion. There is a time to abandon our political, cultural or religious affiliations and unanimously confront a problem that threatens us all. This is one of those times. Let's not politicize this issue, it's beyond that. That's all I have to say. |

Okay, here's a drastic but simple solution to the problem because it's now out of hand. The Southwest should stop being cowards and end this nonsense immediately. If OPC and co start eliminating Hausas and Fulanis in the south west in retaliation. When that happens, the silent Muslim north population will come out and stand againts this boko nonsense. They either do that or just repatriate their people from the south. Don't let anyone deceive you, the muslim north, as far as i am concerned, condone boko haram 100%. Why are they so silent about the issue. We need to start killing them too. Either the problem gets solved or we simply destroy the nation. Wetin |

phuck_NL: How is this a SW issue exactly? Last time I checked, Kano was in the North killing NIgerians, which makes this a nigerian issue. Correct me if i'm wrong, but since when did OPC become police or army unit or navy unit or. . . . ? |

Go ahead and be killing your people. When others are acquiring education and getting good jobs, this is the most you can do. |

Ileke-IdI: It is a SW issue because the SW is the only one that can send them a message that will be loud and clear. |
