30 Feared Dead, 100 Injured In Borno As Female Suicide Bombers Hit Wedding, Fune by HenryThegreat1(m): 4:22am On Jun 30
Emir of Gwoza local government area of Borno State, Alhaji Mohammed Shehu Timta, yesterday, confirmed that multiple suicide attacks were carried out at various locations, including a wedding reception and a burial ceremony in Gwoza town.

The coordinated incidents, which took place in the afternoon, allegedly caused pandemonium as people scampered for safety.

Sources said, “More than 30 people were killed with over 100 sustained various degrees of injuries, even as many of the victims have been evacuated to Maiduguri for medical attention.”

Confirming the incident to Sunday Vanguard exclusively, Timta said, “ The entire Gwoza council area is in mourning following multiple suicide attacks on our community.

“The first suicide attack was masterminded by an unidentified woman who sneaked with two children into a wedding reception of a popular young man in Gwoza. She detonated her Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) killing herself and many people.

“A few minutes after, another suicide bomber sneaked into a burial ceremony nearby and detonated Improvised Explosive Devices, and as am talking to you now, the third explosion just occurred a few minutes ago with more casualties.

“At least, over 100 people were injured, and most of them who sustained serious injuries have been rushed to Maiduguri with military escort for proper medical attention.

“This is just a preliminary confirmation, as details of the casualties are still yet unknown, but I will keep you posted on any developments”. The Emir stated.

Reacting to the incidents, a member representing Gwoza/Chibok/Damboa federal constituency, Ahmed Usman Jaha a.k.a Babawo, sympathized with the families of those who lost their loved ones in the multiple attacks, even as he prayed to Allah to grant the souls of the deceased Aljannatul Firdaus, and wished those who sustained injuries quick recovery.

Gwoza, a town in southern Borno bordering the Cameroun Republic. It was hitherto declared Boko Haram Territory after it was captured by insurgents with hundreds of people killed before it was later liberated by troops.

Wondering what some northerners are gaining from all this back and forth killings

Some Northerners can't be claiming to be religious and still be involving In an act of terrorism.

Not for once I ever read about Hisbah fighting any terrorists

Preach from now to the end of time, you cannot separate violence from Islam. They are like bread and butter. Even the Quran keeps calling Jews unprintable names and encouraging Muslims to hate them. Yet, Muslims tell us that Islam is a religion of peace; you cannot fool all the people all the time.

Abeg, let's leave the presidency out of this for now.

Are the Northerners themselves sincere enough to stop all this killings. When no be say na foreigners or outsiders are their foot soldiers, they are northerners and those who fund them also are northerners

Implementation of the minutes of meeting held in Daura has commenced.
This template was used against GEJ headed by Modu Sheriff and Elrufai who had to publicly declare he paid the terrorists to stop the attacks when they went haywire, the aim was to make t country ungovernable and take power from an Ijaw man (widely seen as an Igbo man in the North).
When Gen Ihejirika the then Chief of Army Staff reacted by going after them viciously he was accused of taking revenge for Biafra against the North, then Buhari made his famous declaration that any attack against them was an attack against the North and they tricked GEJ into sacking Ihejirika by threatening not to vote for him.

Tinubu because of his personal ambition had to align with Buhari's position and supported him to win election as President.
But one thing I know is that Tinubu is not a novice in this game, he may even support them to self destruction and then use Lagos Ibadan media to suppress outflow of information or twist the tales from the region in his favour 🤔
