Though its not impossible, I doubt if IBB had anything to do with it.
On the other hand the bomb had "ATIKU" emblazoned on it.

IBB has been accused of a lot in the history of this country and may be most are accurate accusations.

But the current linking of Bomb blasts to anybody running against Jonathan Goodluck is simply childish and shameful.

IBB used to be the prime suspect, once he left the race it changed to Atiku.

However these bombings did not start today, they started even while Yar'adua was in office. BokoHaram and MEND were active then. This is just an existing problem that has been allowed to get out of hand because Government is sleeping and not awake to its responsibilities.

This business of linking the bomb to anyone running against Jonathan are the sort of behaviors you see when dimwits blindly and hopelessly supports a half baked leader who can't differentiate facts from fiction.

do ur analysis again,its IBB not ATIKU thats the real reason he lost the northern consensus candidacy to ATIKU because ciroma and his cliq know very well he will be a arrested and maybe jailed if finally investigation is carries out because he will surely be implicated
