July 24, 2014 – Boko Haram: Death Toll Of Ramadan Attack / Bomb Blasts In Kaduna Hits 90

According to eyewitnesses account of the twin bomb explosions that hit Kaduna on Wednesday, over 90 people died in the separate attacks .

The first bomb blast, ac­cording to eyewitnesses, oc­curred at about 12.45 pm, soon after the closing of Ra­madan Tafsir (end of Ramadan preaching) by Sheik Dahiru Bauchi, which was held at the popular Murtala Moham­med Square, where a suicide bomber was said to have laid ambush on Alkali Road.

The second blast occurred at Kawo, about two hours af­ter the first blast. In the attack, a bomb rocked the Kawo fly-over bridge.

Eyewitnesses stated that over 90 people died in each of the blasts, while scores were injured. Most of the dead and injured ones, according to eyewitnesses, were followers of Sheik Bauchi, who had ac­companied him to and from the preaching ground.

One eyewitness said: “At about 12.30 pm, we just heard loud noise; it happened where many cars were parked, and we saw dead bodies being flung in different directions. Many spots along Alkali Road, where the bomb blast occurred, were soaked in blood. This was the time peo­ple were returning from Tafsir lecture in Murtala Square.”

Read what the governor of Kaduna said about the attack:

“Enemies of peace have visited us with their ungodly venom of wanton destruction of human lives. This blast, coming in the holy month of Ramadan, is a clear indication that those behind the act have no iota of the fear of God, as they have none for the sanctity of human life.”

Very sad!

May their souls rest in perfect peace.

    It is time for us Nigerians and our government mostly have to realized that what started as a verbal attack by the present administration opposition members,Northerners to to specific,has been hijacked by Foreign elements to unleash terror and reduce the population of Nigeria.
    There is no doubt that this western aggression towards World domination and reduction of human population is actually taking place. What is happening in Nigeria this time will definitely prove me right as we all know,it’s not about oil as Nigeria has being under indirect rule since the so called independent and verse majority of it’s resources is still manage by westerners,not only Britain.
    Just think about this, most of the countries that you recently hear about war or terrorist operating at are highly populated ones, so we have to know this, their members in achieving this goal are part of the government,they signed and took oath in helping to achieve this in Nigeria and that’s why they are in power, you will never hear their names…human life does not mean anything to them. The Illuminati agenda is real, call it conspiracy or whatever you like,the dark prince is on the work. This lies of terrorist this or that has already gained ground on human mind and that’s why they capitalize on that to be eliminating the population. They are everywhere,only using religion to destabilize things. Everyone need to pray hard. Nigeria in particular and the World in general need revolution. Only Jesus has and will still defeat them.

    Boko Haram as the name implies are animals. A human being with blood flowing in his or her vein can never do such.

    It hurts me so bad when I hear people blaming it on Islam and calling the holy prophet all sort of names. Now that BH target Muslims and succeeded in killing many, things are good but if it had happened in a church or christian dominated area, Islam would have been rubbished by those ignorant people who are still blind to see that this killings by BH is way beyond different religious beliefs. Wake up y’all from your slumbers and pray harder. The people you voted in foolishly are killing your rapidly.

    Why lots of Nigerians are so ***** and blinded by their ethnicity. The solution is simple, if the present administration can’t do anything to stop this mayhem then we should give others a chance and see what they can do, and if they also fail then we keep changing till we have the right ones
