Official Statistics On Number Of Explosions And Lives Lost So Far by Aderostock(m): 11:54pm On Jul 05, 2013
Nigeria recorded 3600 deaths in over 400 bomb explosions in the last three years.
This statistics is from the Nigeria Police anti-bomb unit, according to a United Kingdom based organization known as Action on Armed Violence (AOAV).
The organisation said the over 400 bomb explosions occurred in different locations of the
country but more frequently in the north-west
zone between 2010 and May 2013.
'According to the Nigeria Police Forces' Anti-bomb squad, over 400 bomb explosions have shaken Nigeria in the last three years with an estimated more than 3600 people recorded by human rights groups who lost their lives in the process between 2010 and May 2013,' the AOAV said.
North-Central Coordinator of the body, Elizabeth Jeiyol, expressed hope that the revelation contained in the organization's interim report
titled 'Mapping Efforts Against Violence in Nigeria' would help to contain armed violence and ensure better livelihoods for all especially the vulnerable-women and children. Jeiyol also informed that between 2008 and 2010 the Nigerian Police Force recorded 887 cases of kidnapping and piracy across the country just as sectarian violence in the North Western part of the country had claimed over 1500 casualties between 2011 and 2012. Earlier, a Senior Security aide to the Benue state government, Samuel Kande said that the government is concerned about the preservation of lives and properties of its citizen and would therefore make all efforts to stop proliferations or arms and weapons in the state.
Similarly, AOVA's country representative, Julia
Knittel intimated that her organization was in
Nigeria to gather data for other donor agencies
who are also interested on working against armed violence in the world.

GEJ is responsible.
He recruited and radicalised th bombers. Their training ground is right behind his place and he refused to report them. He gave them guns.
After setting Borno on fire he has the audacity to seek to be BOT chair for a party of peace and liberation.

GEJ is their secret agent. He is working with them to actualise their dream- to islamise Nigeria. Naija people will be bombed into submission.

His aim is to create chaos and anarchy in the North. He believes he is born to rule and that the rest of Nigerians are conquered people.

As usual GEJ TAKES ALL THE BLAME.

The worst so far in the history of Nigeria without a civil war. even the state of emergency will curb it for a while before springing up again. its just a relief or short measure.

The Nigerian civil war imparted positively unlike this Boko Haram war.
However, all we need is peace....
