maiduguri explosions-suicide bombers

At least 11 persons were killed in multiple bomb explosions on Tuesday night in Maiduguri.

A reliable security source, who pleaded anonymity, told NAN that the first and second explosions occurred at about 9.45 p.m. at Mulaikalmari, some six kms away from Maiduguri.

The source said that eight persons, including the suicide bombers were killed in the attack.

Three persons were also killed and five others wounded in the third and fourth explosions, which occurred about 20 minutes later at Polo-Sabon Gari area of Maiduguri, according to the source, who said he helped in the evacuation of the victims from the scenes of the explosion.

“All the attacks occurred in the outskirts of the metropolis.

“It is a foiled attempt by Boko Haram insurgents to infiltrate the town.”

The source added that security teams had been drafted to the affected areas to ascertain the situation.

He disclosed those wounded referred to Special Hospital, Maiduguri for medical attention.

Efforts to get confirmation from the Police proved abortive the as Command’s public relations officer did not respond to phone calls
and text messages.

However, the Chairman of the State Emergency Management Agency, Alhaji Satomi Ahmed, who confirmed the attacks, said his officials have been mobilised to the scenes.

“Thanks to the hard work of our Emergency Response Teams we were able to put together a prompt response,” he said

    That’s to show u the extent of foolishness of the northerners,bcs they created boko haram as their Islamic militias to push Gej out of power and to use them make money from UN and it’s now backfired on them but still bcs boko haram was their Islamic militias the north didn’t see them as a terrorist organizations but as northern Islam brothers and sisters,instead they focused on Nnamdi kanu with his ipob as their threat and bcs they’re in power they send all nigerian forces to east to combat with unarmed innocent biafrans while boko haram are repaying them 7 fold of their evil plots against biafrans and their fulani herdsmen staged their own attacks on kaduna-Abuja road killing and abducting people as they like without any disturbance from their northern brothers in FG bcs it’s them them instead their brothers in FG now send their military might to protect their oil wells in the Niger delta bcs for them human beings are nothing but animals as aisha buhari with her husband gangsters called nigerians recently.still some slaves are pitying the same northerners that are threatening the God own people biafrans as God uses the same northern Islam militias boko haram to avenge for his biafran people,all the northern fraud with boko haram has exposed that’s why EU has withdrawn their assistance to nigeria so let them keep on focused on biafrans while their Islamic militias has brings war to their doorstep.

    Since Boko Haram was technically defeated by the Nigeria military, who could be responsible for all this bombing or does it mean that Arewa Youths have started their Oct. 1st warning notice????? Hmmmmm just asking though

    Withdraw all the alamajili from the streets and give them good upbringing at home, if not, the bombing will continue. Untrained children are terrors to the society.
