Three female suicide bombers on Friday morning, attacked the Umarari Bayan Waya area of Mulai Village in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital with Improvised Explosive Devices (IED), leaving at least seven people feared killed and 17 others injured.
The blast was reported to have occurred around a few minutes past 5am when Muslim faithful were getting ready for the early morning prayer, reports Channels TV.
The explosion claimed the lives of the suicide bombers and four others while 17 injured are currently receiving treatment at the Specialist Hospital.

“All the people in the mosque died. Not a single one escaped,” said Muhtari Ahmadu, a trader near the scene.

Where is Lai Mohammed? If these bombings happened during Jonathan's time, he would have lambasted him and called him all sorts of name. But now, Lai is quiet. He now has a different agenda, It is time to enjoy the spoils of office and seriously warming up to become a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Afterall, he has worked so hard, defending the programs of his party - the APC, now in power. It is time for someone else to take over, as APC spokesperson. What goes around, comes around.
ReplyDeleteLai mohammed and co have achieve their aims. People are being killed daily and they are struggling for cabinet posts. Apc saw book haram as Jonathan thing. They never cooperated towards ending it before it got worst. But then, my prayers goes to the northern east people.
