Two Education Officials Killed In Bomb Explosion On Damboa–Maiduguri Road by ogododo(op): 8:00am On May 13, 2025

Two staff of the Damboa Local Education Authority (LEA) were killed on Monday in a bomb blast along the Damboa–Maiduguri highway.

Sources told Zagazola Makama that the victims, identified as Blessings Luka and Gideon Bitterleaf, were travelling from Damboa to Maiduguri when the incident occurred.

According to eyewitnesses, the deceased were seated in front of a Toyota Hiace van transporting mangoes when the vehicle struck an improvised explosive device suspected to have been planted by insurgents.

The explosion claimed both lives instantly, leaving a few others with injuries.

A source within the Damboa Local Government confirmed the identities of the victims, describing them as committed and hard working education officials.

Security operatives have since cordoned off the area, while investigations are ongoing to identify those responsible for the attack.

And the Federal government is still funding a program that recycles these terrorists and releases them back to the society.

All with taxpayers' money.

Nigeria is an animal farm.

Divide this country so we know clearly where the enemies come from and who they are.... Doing this will cause a shift in their mindset that co-operation with the terrorist to destroy your own community will backfire cuz you can't run to the south for safety

Does it mean that the presidency doesn't know about all these occurrences? It's high time they make it clear that they are not capable of defending the citizens. Security of lives and properties of the first principal assignment of every government. No excuses, if the present government knows that it's no longer capable, let Tinubu resign.

When democracy does not work the people beg government to save them from government. Do you beg a person you employ.

Nigerians will never learn. They continue to elect people they cannot control.

Just as a successful business cannot be run by the friends and family you cannot sack so a successful government cannot be run by electing people you love, fear and respect.

Governments in sane societies cannot try this or be gone in an instant.

Nigerians must erase the feudal mindset and sentiments and adopt the working knowledge of democracy which holds public officials to extremely tight standards and has zero tolerance for maladministration.

The casualties are not only those who are dead. The harm of violence, war, or systemic oppression extends beyond physical death — it includes psychological, emotional, cultural, and spiritual damage as well.
