Heavy Gunfire, Explosions Heard In Maiduguri by McDonalds2014(m): 1:02pm On Nov 16, 2014
Maiduguri may be under attack from the outskirts by the violent Jihadist group, the Boko Haram.
According to available information, early morning explosions followed by heavy artillery gunfire was heard inside the capital town of Maiduguri. The time of the explosion was pegged at 7:01am to 7:06am.
The exchange of gunfire is not certain to be between the Jihadist terrorist group and the Nigerian military but it is worthy of note that the Nigerian military had stationed themselves at the four entrance locations into Maiduguri. The direction of the explosions and gunfire were coming from the entry locations into the town.
The latest attack comes less than twenty four hours following the attack on Chibok town by the Jihadist terrorist.
In talking to a military officer stationed in Maiduguri, he explained that there are efforts by the Jihadist group to test the resolve of the security agents stationed at he entry locations to the town.“We are used to it by now”said the security agent who went on to explain that of late the frequency of the attacks have increased.
Another more high ranking source within he Nigerian military told 247ureports.com that the artillery fire and the explosions are the makings of the military to deter would-be attackers from proceeding with a planned attack.“It is just a preemptive measure“.
Interestingly,“no one can confirm this source of the explosions and gunfire authoritatively because no one can go close to them”, said one of the administrators of the town who confided in our reporter.

Boko haram can raise 100,000 fighters easily if they have the resources to take care of them. There is great sufferness in nigeria.
