UPDATE: Maiduguri is Under Partial Attack! by LRNZH(m): 7:34am On Jan 25, 2015
Edit: Update: Maiduguri is currently under partial attack!


We are receiving disturbing reports that Boko Haram armies are headed for Maiduguri, capital of Borno state.

A message from a security officer read “Salam.We just got a report that Book haram will strike Maiduguri tonight. Pls wake up n pray with ur family now. May Allah save us all.”


In the early hours of Saturday, Boko Haram terrorists erased Kambari village, killing 15 citizens and the village head.

Kambari village is just 5 kilometers from Maiduguri. The terrorists are believed to be possibly headed to the capital via this route after the many unsuccessful attempts via Konduga.
The terrorists made several unsuccessful attempts on the capital which were thwarted in fierce combats by the Nigerian army and Civilian JTF at Konduga. In one such attack, a Boko Haram leader, “Shekau” double was killed by the Nigerian army.



Nigeria’s president just concluded a visit to Maiduguri in which he had hundreds of soldiers deployed for his protection. It is hoped that these soldiers are still in the capital and will be part of the defense against Boko Haram’s invasion.

Distressingly, Boko Haram burned down the Kambari village while hundreds of troops were stationed in the capital to secure the president of Nigeria’s re-election campaign barely 5 kilometers away.

The terrorists amassed serious weapons, armored tanks and personnel carriers and communications equipment in their successful raid on Bama barracks early January in an attack that saw them kill over 2500 defenseless civilians.

The terrorists have visibly been more aggressive ahead of the February elections. It is perceived that they are eager to make as much gains as they can before a change in administration to a General Buhari government that is expected to be intolerable of their carnage.


Our calls to corroborate this information rang out.
More as we get it…

The soldiers are only available to protect Jonathan, not the people. See the bad luck he brought on them by his visit? When he left, he gave them sorrow, tears, blood and death. It's a shame

IbnSultaan:

They can.
Only a blind bat won't decipher BH tactics in the past couple of months. They have been attacking towns in Gombe and Yobe in a bid to encircle Maiduguri.

They look like they're succeeding so far. Maiduguri will fall unless the Nigeria Forces change their approach of just trying to hold positions.

Some one has already opened thread about this attack since morning and the mod didn't move his thread to fp. I don't know criteria for moving thread on fb but I personally think the person handling this is not fair.






Btw, we need a change so that we try something different. With gej beyond 2015, bh will take over Nigeria one day.

Oh... No.

I don't just get it damn it!
Why do we simply wait to absorb Boko Haram attacks?

These guys have already isolated themselves since ages. Building camps and capturing towns across.

Isn't this more like an invasion.
Am I the only one seeing more to these attacks!

Haba! but they released over 200 women, why the attack na? Only God can deliver Nigeria from this Bokoguys.
Re: UPDATE: Maiduguri is Under Partial Attack! by Nobody: 1:40pm On Jan 25, 2015
Na wa o. My question is where are these people coming from?
why is it difficult to unleash their hideouts? How can hundreds of heavily armed young boys will travel through land in several kilometers and miles for several hours without being noticed?
Does it mean that all villages and towns in meduguri and yobe are all compromised without military noticing how they move in masses?
Now they are attacking military barracks in hundreds instead of them (military) to attack, they are now repelling and fighting back. This is really serious. With the way i see military being politicalized now, i just pray that one day boko haram will not take over all the baracks with their continuous attacking style if military and FG dont change their tatics.

One thing that you keeps repeating doing all the time philosophically will give way to you one day. I just pray this will not come to pass, if not, Nigeria is doomed as a nation, it is only a matter of time.
