In continuation of Boko Haram, ISIS’ affiliate in Nigeria’s campaign of terror, two bombs have been reported to have exploded around Maiduguri, capital of war-torn Borno state in northeast Nigeria.
The first bomb in which the suicide bomber was reported to have died occurred near the State security services, DSS office, at Borno expressway and was allegedly a bomb being transported in a tricycle, Keke Napep. The bomb was reported around 7am.
The second bomb reportedly happened around NEPA opposite Adamawa Sunshine.
We are yet to have a count on deaths and injuries.
Boko Haram, a takfiri terrorist group that has killed over 100,000 Nigerians and displaced over 4 million has upped its bombing campaigns since the handover of power to the new administration that has promised to seriously deal with the group.
Several of the attacks targeting Mosques during the Muslim Ramadan fast have taken hundreds of lives and injured hundreds more.
Nigeria’s new government has been criticized for not changing or at least retiring to desk duty the war crime and violation culpable heads of security and army chiefs from the former administration.
