Foxy_Flow: Suspected Boko Haram terrorists, Monday morning, attacked the Composite Group Air force Base and other places in Maiduguri, the Borno state capital.

The siege which started at about 3am shook the town as sporadic gunshots and other Rocket Propelled Launchers fire were heard, with airstrikes in Maiduguri and Jere metropolis till 8 am.

Sources said during the attacks on the air force base and other places including the Maiduguri international airport, several people were killed as the terrorists numbering over 300 planted explosive in targeted areas in the state capital.

Also attacked are, the newly constructed trailer parks along Damaturu- Maiduguri road, military check points and other residential and public buildings, which according to the source led to the death of many people among the terrorists and security agencies.

An eye witness who resides in Gomari airport area, just few metres away to the air force base, said, ” I saw 5 military operational vehicles conveying dead bodies to the hospital at about 6am, the dead bodies were suspected to be security agents killed during the attack”.

Nigeria's North East is gradually turning to Somalia.
It seems the Boko terrorists are becoming tougher like Taliban.

Just as we were trying to commend the JTF for doing a good job, Boko haram is still waxing strong. I wonder how 2015 will look like. Lord please take control.

Shame on the Nigerian military. How can they be on ground for over 6 months yet the ragtag bandits called Boko Haram still have the boldness and freedom to attack places that should have been no go areas. I'm highly disappointed. I wonder what would have happened without the civillian JTF. Maybe its time we started looking for mercenaries to fight this battle for us(after all all the major projects currently going on got the country are being done by mercenaries). Very shameful
