Bomb-blast In Maiduguri As APC Hold Meeting by Monimatic(m): 4:32pm On Feb 28, 2013
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (AP) — Witnesses say several bombs have exploded in a northeastern Nigeria city which is hosting a meeting of opposition political parties.

The blasts happened Thursday afternoon in the city of Maiduguri, long under assault by a radical Islamic sect known as Boko Haram. A security official said he believed some soldiers were killed in the blasts, but did not have any other information. The official spoke on condition of anonymity as he was not authorized to speak to journalists.

The All Progressives Congress, a recently announced amalgam of opposition parties in Nigeria, was holding a meeting Thursday in the city that had drawn powerful politicians.

Meanwhile, police in the eastern state of Taraba said foreigners working for a construction company escaped a kidnapping attempt Wednesday night that killed two police officers.

Step 1: Move the meeting to Maiduguri
Step 2: Hide in the comfort of the governemnt house or hotel.
Step 3: Blast a bomb on the street
Step 4: Cry how "we" escaped
Step 5: Buhari: I hope they bought my cover up that I don't sponsor Boko Haram.

I agree! Nigerian politicians may be sutpid, but they're not THIS stpuid. They must have expected this to happen so they could use it to their advantage.

After removing the variables, and solving the simultaneous equation, it is now clearyly proven that:
PDP = Boko Haram.
All Boko Haram are PDP and all PDP members are Boko Haram.

Now is getting clearer by the day. Permit me to recall something.
Remember the 2010 independence day bombing at Eagle Square? They said jonathan used it as a cover up to gain the sympathy of Nigerians to win election.
I see the same thing trying to happen here. They would say they escaped it and again blame it on PDP for not curbing it, and inturn bring the minds of Nigerians to APC.
Well, let the game begin.
