Over 50 Killed In Borno Bomb Blast by lolaxavier(m): 8:47pm On Aug 11, 2015 |
MAIDUGURI, (Reuters) – A bomb attack on a packed market in northeastern Nigeria bearing the hallmarks of Boko Haram killed around 50 people on Tuesday, sources said. The explosion struck at around 1:30 p.m. (1230 GMT) in the town of Sabon Gari in Borno state, which is the heartland of the Islamist militant group. “So far, 52 people are injured, 47 dead persons have been removed from the market,” Umar Kidda, a member of a civilian viligante group, told Reuters by phone. Kidda, who witnessed bodies being taken away, said the market was busy when the explosion occurred. A military source who declined to be named said around 50 people had been killed. Boko Haram has killed thousands of people during a six-year armed campaign to set up an Islamic state in northeastern Nigeria. According to a Reuters tally, more than 600 people have been killed in raids and bombings by the insurgents since President Muhammadu Buhari took office on May 29, promising to crush the group. At the start of the year Boko Haram controlled territory about the size of Belgium. The army said it pushed the group from most of that area in the last few months with the help of troops from Chad, Niger and Cameroon, but there has been a recent resurgence in militant attacks. No one claimed responsibility for Tuesday’s blast. http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2015/08/11/over-50-killed-in-borno-bomb-blast/ |

Buratai is in abuja jogging and taking pictures with soldiers who suppose to be in the battle front protecting the lives of endangered citizens in precarious condition, yet APC talented praise singers deem it fit to continue the praise singing even without results As a wailing wailer I wail for the innocent who just lost their lives I wail for Nigeria I will for you foolish and dump party supporter 114 Likes 18 Shares |

Nigeria has gradually transformed to Somalia, thanks to Northern elders who fuelled this by keeping quiet on this since and indirectly supporting the impunity. Also thanks to APC who politicised it and finally thanks to the m0h@med who invented the blood sucking religion. Rip to the dead. 114 Likes 14 Shares |

Jeez, this is an eyesore, how can these people continue in such acts even after one of their own won the election? What do they want? Well, I wouldn't say it's good to kill their people, but I know that when these people started by killing Christians most northerners were happy, now it's payback time. Almost lost my dad to these fools. #thereIsNoVirginForYouInHeaven stop this madness! 14 Likes 3 Shares |
