Violence In Kano by prettyG: 10:00am On Feb 22, 2012 |
Gunshots and explosions rang out early on Wednesday in Kano, local residents said, in a region beset by violence by Islamist sect Boko Haram. Clashes between Boko Haram gunmen and security forces have flared up several times in Kano since the sect killed 178 people in Nigeria's second largest city last month, in its deadliest attack so far. "We were stopped from coming out for our early morning prayers, we couldn't leave the house. About 5am (0400 GMT) the gunshots and explosions started and they haven't stopped," Stephen Ahmed, a local Kano resident, told Reuters by phone. A police spokesman declined to give comment and the army was not contactable. http://dailytimes.com.ng/article/violence-kano |

Boko Haram has more members in Kano than Bauchi from the look of things they are more aggressive in killing their own people in the name of Jihad. |

Re: Violence In Kano by worm(f): 10:58am On Feb 22, 2012 |
I learnt it was a police BARRACK that was attacked. Where police and their families stays, you can imagine women and children that will be killed in this attack. If this Boko can confront a police barrack with armed brigades stationed outside then it is really getting out of hand. People normally seek refuge in the police station/barracks during violence and now station and barrracks are the prime targets. What is happeninggggggggggggggggg?? |

Re: Violence In Kano by harakiri(m): 10:59am On Feb 22, 2012 |
These everyday shootouts and bombings is getting boring. Can't Boko Haram come up with something worth reading? Aren't they bored of killing their own kit and kin senselessly? Abeg, make dem go back to the drawing board jor. ***[s]If you want to be religious zombie and dumba$$, at least do it well[/s]*** |

DonPedro 2: Unfortunately, the deterioration in country risk affects the entire country and not just the North. This is the more reason we need to discuss on the continuity of this fractious and turbulent union. |
