Police Uncover Bomb On Farmland In Borno by DiamondsAreFore(op): 6:23pm On Aug 18, 2025

The police command in Borno says operatives have uncovered unexploded ordnance on farmland in the Dikwa LGA of the state.

In a statement on Monday, Nahum Daso, the police spokesperson in Borno, said operatives recovered the bomb after one Babagana Kachalla discovered the suspicious object on his farmland.

Daso said Naziru Abdulmajid, the police commissioner in Borno, deployed the explosive ordnance disposal team to the location.

“The recovery followed a report from one Babagana Kachalla, who sighted a suspicious object on his farmland,” the statement reads.

“Upon receipt of the information, the commissioner of police, Borno State Command, CP Naziru Abdulmajid, promptly deployed the commander of the explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) Base 13, Maiduguri, alongside his team, to the location.

“In line with standard EOD-CBRN protocols, the area was professionally cordoned off.

“The UXO, identified as a cluster bomb unit (CBU) measuring approximately 2.2 meters in length and 30 centimeters in width, was found partially buried.

“The EOD-CBRN operatives conducted IN-SITU demolition before the extraction of the cluster munitions plates.

“The operation was carried out successfully without incident.

“Members of the community were sensitized on explosive ordnance risk awareness (EORA) to enhance their knowledge on safety precautions when such dangerous objects are discovered.”

That does not look like a locally made bomb. And that guy isn't properly dressed for such dangerous task.

It looks like an unexploded bomb dropped by NAF.
But I am writhing in disbelief that Nigeria is still way far behind in handling issues like this, technologically.

Re: Police Uncover Bomb On Farmland In Borno by Dogalmighty17: 9:28pm On Aug 18, 2025

2.2 meter bomb? That's one hell of a large UXO. It is bigger than most of the UXOs currently being found all over Europe. Something that large can level entire city blocks so it means it was a dud dropped from a Nigerian airforce fighter jet.

Taking a look at that bomb again, I can't help but wonder if it wouldn't have been better to have detonated the bomb on site. There was no point risking the life of the police personnel by having him handle the bomb. The area was uninhabited. Placing huge metal blocks around the UXO and detonating it would have been the better option. The police got off lucky.

Till date, there are entire areas in France that can't be developed due to UXOs from WW1. Over 110 years later, those bombs and grenades still pose an active threat. Farmers in France operating in such areas, have to be extremely careful and avoid certain areas. Bombs from WW1 still explode in that country. Germany (WW2) and Vietnam constantly deal with UXOs all the time. Vietnam in particular, had more bombs dropped on that country by the US than all the bombs dropped by all the countries in WW2, combined.
