2 Boko Haram Female Suicide Bombers Kill 62 At IDP Camps in Dikwa Borno State
Feb 11, 2016 – 2 Boko Haram Suicide Bombers Kill 62 At IDP Camps in Dikwa Borno State
2 female bombers, pretending as displaced Boko Haram victims, sneaked into an Internally Displaced Persons’ (IDPs) camp in Borno’s Dikwa town and killed no fewer than 62 persons.
According to a Civilian JTF member and military source who preferred anonymity, the bombers disguised as if they were returning to the camp after a time out, unknown to many, including security personnel around the camp, that they were Boko Haram bombers.
The incident occurred on Tuesday morning but was not immediately known in the capital Maiduguri, until yesterday, due to breakdown of telephone services in the area some 85 kilometres away.
Chairman of the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA), Satomi Ahmad said over 30 were killed while 78 people were injured. “Those who were injured have been taken to the hospital. Some of them are receiving treatment at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH) now,” he told newsmen on Wednesday evening.
He said officials of the agency and other emergency workers were already in Dikwa for evacuation of the victims.
Dikwa IDPs camp has the highest number of 75, 000 displaced persons out of about 30 camps located in different parts of the state. Dikwa is situated in the central part of Borno and was liberated from Boko Haram late last year.

İt is unfortunate that despite your education (your claim) you judge Islam (the Religion) based on the attitude of some Muslims (those who follow Islam)

As a measure against recrudescence, the govt should design a gate pass for any IDP who wishes to leave the camp and go outside for any reason, or better still, design an ID card for them to carry when they leave the camp. They will then be required to show either of those, or both, at the gate before they are allowed into the camp again. And this measure can only work effectively if the camp has high walls to discourage anybody who might want to scale them. And I wonder if military guards are posted to these camps. I recommened prompt deployment of armed men to these IDP camps to enhance security. They should have something like a lighthouse where the guards stay and have an elevated view of the whole camp and its surroundings just at a glance.

Pls read dis again:-
“the bombers disguised as if they were returning to the camp after a time out, UNKNOWN to many including the SECURITY personnel around the camp“
It means, dia ar securities after all. Bt den, they were nonchalant n complacent abt who goes out of d camp n who comes in. An opportunity 4 a target.
Probably too, dos bombers were dressed in hijabs since they were girls n nt men.
I tink all d securities @ d camps rily need 2 b change wt immedia8 effect n deploy more serious n vigilant 1ce instead.
May d souls of d departed in Christ among dem rest in peace in His Kingdom whr dia z gono b no more pains.
