Sadly since the Inauguration of Pres. Buhari and VP Osinbajo last Friday, the attacks in Borno and Yobe States have continued. A suicide bomber killed 26 people in a Maiduguri mosque and then another in the cattle market yesterday killing 17 and injuring 20 others. Another girl blew herself up at a checkpoint near Biu but there were no other people killed seemingly. On Saturday night the city came under attack with shooting and rocket propelled grenades hitting houses in the night. Several towns in Yobe State were attacked with looting and burnt public buildings but no one was reported killed.
Three families, two from Yobe State (Damaturu and Machina) and one from Maiduguri, who have just graduated from Kabwir Pastors’ college are unable to go home as it is unsafe to travel.
Pres Buhari has travelled to Niger Republic and then Tchad on Thursday for joint talks on how to deal with Boko Haram. At present it seems BH is deliberately challenging the Government.
