Boko Haram hits military church

• 13 killed, 30 injured in double explosion

From NOAH EBIJE and ABDULGAFAR ALABELEWE, Kaduna
Two suicide bombers suspected to be members of the Islamist sect, Boko Haram yesterday succeeded in gaining entrance through the supposedly water-tight security into the barracks, Jaji, near Kaduna town. After beating the security post at the main gate of the cantonment, according to eyewitness, one of the bombers rammed into Saint Andrew Protestant Military Church at about 12.15 pm, killing many worshippers.

Shortly after the blast, another bomb exploded at about 12.20 at Saint Peters Catholic Church in the area, which sources within the barracks put the figure of the dead at 13 with 30 injured, adding that, “more people might have been killed by the two suicide bombers.” However, the Director, Army Public Relations, Brigadier General Bola Koleoso, who confirmed that 11 people were killed in the explosion, said: “There were twin suicide bombings today at the St. Andrew Military Protestant Church, Jaji Military Cantonment at 1205hrs and 1215hrs.

A bus first ran into the church and exploded about five minutes after service while a Toyota Camry parked outside the church detonated 10 minutes later. Figures of casualties not yet clear but the injured are receiving treatment at military hospitals both in Jaji and Kaduna.” This came barely 48 hours after the Joint Task Force (JTF) in Maiduguri placed N50 million ransom on Abu Shekau, leader of the Islamist sect to facilitate his arrest by anybody, just as similar bomb attack rocked St. Rita’s Catholic Church in Kaduna about three weeks ago killing about seven people and injuring over 140.

According to a source at the security point leading to the barracks, the bombers refused to subject themselves to security checks, saying, “we are in a haste, we are in haste, we are already late,” and they were allowed quick access into the barracks by the security guards. Eyewitnesses, who were junior rank soldiers who did not want their names mentioned in print told Daily Sun, “we saw a driver asking people the way to Saint Peters Catholic Church, and whether the church has closed for the day, and as soon as he was told that the church has closed for the day, he made U-turn and headed towards the next church, Saint Andrew Protestant Church.

The next thing we heard was a loud sound of explosion. We cannot remember again the type of car the bomber used. “And before we know what was happening, we saw people lying dead in their pool of blood, we started screening because we have never seen this type of thing before. The bomb affected an officer’s house. He must have been killed also. We saw several people dead and many people with serious injuries. They were immediately taken to MRS Military Hospital within the cantonment for treatment.

The military establishments that were located in this area included Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC), Nigerian Army School of Infantry (NASI), Infantry Corps Command College (ICCC) and Nigerian Army Peace Keeping Centre (NAPKC). The entire area was immediately cordoned off with security promptly beefed up, causing heavy traffic jams for travellers plying Kaduna-Zaria Highway.

This was even as the officials of the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) and National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) were turned back from the scene of the incident by the military authorities. “We don’t have any further information on the incident,” one of the officials said.

        Dead country with weakest security. Who are they telling that the reason why the allowed the Islamic bomber is that he is in a haste to kill Christian worshippers. Even a police man mounting illegal road bloke cannot even allow a taxi or bus driver or even familiar routine plying Okada to pass his illegal post simply bcos the driver or Okada man is in a haste. Even when he has not made any money for the day, instead they kill him to prevent him passing the illegal road-bloke. They can even give him a hot chase, deflate him tyres with bullets and kill the innocent man in a cold bloood. There and then, their officer partners in crime will rsh to the schene, arrest him the killer officer to save him. In boko haram case, they will not even try to arrest the bomber until he has fully and successfully disappeared.

      Tinubu One Nigeria, Mr Tinubu. Hear ur stupid self, ‘ no way that Nigeria will brake, the reasons why Nigeria will remain one’. This is the type of double standard elders they have in Yoruba land. Elders that cannot say the truth, face reality and be bold enough to say that a brother can go away from a brother who is killing him. Now Tinubu’s so claimed religion of peace has bombed Christian church and they are still peaceful while bombing, shooting, raping, burning, and killing. Tinubu One Nigeria. Just bcos a Nigerian university gave ur old mum award, now you lied deceptively to them that a Yoruba tribe is one brother, sister, the father and mother of the same culture, religion, language and mentality with Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri. Tinubu tell Islam to keep bombing churches to unite Nigeria in a strong fold.
      May the faithful soul of innocent departed christians rest in peace. Amen.

      I agree with you. If a general can be gunned down in a full glare of military personnel, and now a church bombed in a military cantoment, I don’t need anybody to tell me that something is wrong. But few questions need to be asked: Who were the people worshipping in that church? How many senior officers were there? who were the guys at the gate? who were the officers on survillance that sunday? If the military authorities can give us these details, we can take our eyes off the confused fact.

    I sincerely sympertise wit d victims of d bomblast & their family over these irrepairable lost,may d almight God give dem d fortitude to bear d lost.This act of bh is not only baberic but an ungodly act towards mankind.from a reliable prophetic hadiths of prophet moh’d(pbuh). On one occassion,he was together with his companion on d battle field fighting unbelievers,one of d companion started killing unbelievers to d extent that,other companions along with him think that,d man wil enter paradise,but d prophet told them that,d man wil enter hell-fire.this single statement by d prophet creat doubt among d companios that was present with him to d extent that,one of d companion started monitoring d activity of d person in question,in d second battle dat follow,he continue killing unbelivers until d sword of d unbeliever hit d man & felled on d ground,instead of allowing himself to die in d process,he used his own sword to killed himself.then,d person monitoring him said sadaqa lahu rasulu, meaning d prophet had said d truth concerning d man.i.e he will enter hell-fire 4 taking his own life. On d same day of d occassion, someone accept islam without having time to perform salat(prayer),pay zakat,observing fasting & other good deeds,but when he was killed in d battle field by unbelievers,d prophet said he will enter paradise.The point am making here is that,suicide-bombing is not only unislamic but it will lead d suicide-bombers to hell-fire.we must appreciate d effort of our security men & above all coporate with dem when neccessary in order to uncovered those behind d crime.Islamic scholars shld not shy-away 4rm their responsibility,they shld ensure d true teaching of islam is pass onto the followers of our beloved prophet Moh’d(pbuh) 4 d benefit of mankind.with d reality on ground,FGN shld used a combined approaches with all sincerity of purpose to address d problems.may almighty God guide us to d right path.(ameen)

    Those security men at the gate honestly are part of Boko Haram members. Look at the incident closely , did u noticed the way those bombers was given free passage without any hassles, GEJ,s assertions that the B/H had infilterated his govt is no doubt but God will see him through. North is gradually drifting away from Nig nation. The 3million souls of Igbo extraction wasted by Gowon and his northern colleagues are clear indications that the law of vengeance and retribution can be made possible via various dimensions. God is really a wonderful God, He uses anything around Him to wage a cold war for His people.

    Is unfortunate this dastardly act of these terrorists should not be linked to muslims or islam. This act of killing innocent people by Boko Haram is being targeted to create division between muslims and christians with the sole aim of fighting each other. When you look at the comments above you will realize that Boko Haram are achieving their goals. Young people go to cafe with the erroneous believe of fighting muslims and start making comments that will create more problems between the adherance of these two major religion. The problem of Boko Haram should be taken as problem whole nigerians and with united mind and purpose we should fight them by being security conscious. Report to the authority any suspicious acts, and i belief in no distant time we will deal with this problem. Nation building is not an easy task, government on their part they should fight corruption because 90% of the problem is do to unemployment especially youths are being marginalize.

    I believe there is a strong connivance between the security at the gate and the bombers. The statement: “we are in haste”
    may be the signal to the security guys at the gate to let them in.

    If these murderous guys can get through what should have been a tight security situation, then, with their collaborators, they can at anywhere.

    The new National Security Adviser – Sambo Dasuki was appointed to sort out the security challenges which former NSA – Azazi was believed to be incapable of solving. So, wbat are the achievements of the new NSA so far?

    A lot of Christians and Southerners have been murdered in cold blood. If those murdered were Northerners, the country would have been on fire by now. So, do Notherners have blue blood, untouchable and Christians and Southerners in the North could be massacred like chickens?

    Let us call a spade, a spade. It is very clear that some Northern elders and elites are behind the masquerade of Boko Haram. So, what are we waiting for?

    President Goodluck Jonathan are you trying to compromise the entire situation because of your political ambition of re-running for the Presidency in 2013? Don’;t you think it is high time you damn the consequences and take the bull by the horns to arrest the security situation in the country once-and-for-all to save your name and Nigeria?

    Please, Presido, do something drastic before things get out of hand completely.

    @Divine: What has GEJ got to do with the issue at hand, seeing the lapses of the security men on the gate. When criticizing, is better you do it more constructively than being passive. This Boko Haram issue is a virus masterminded by his political opponents as to destabilize his administration. Why should the madness of this demonic sect called boko haram get to the peak during GEJ’s administration? that’s the question Nigerians have refused to unravel. May God almighty deliver this country for good in Jesus name.

    Religion of peace is at again. Religion of peace, wherever it goes, people lose their right, their freedom and if they ever ask questions nor criticize the activities of religion of peace, they lose their life. What is peaceful in killing the innocent simple because they refuse to accept the religion of peace? what is peaceful in bombing places of worship by apostles of religion of peace? We have over ten religions on earth today, Islam is the only religion that is forced on people, why? Do you force a good product on consumers? I think their is a city called ISLAM-A-BAD? Gowon should be happy because one Nigeria is at work. Arewa Consultative Forum, Northern Elders Forum, Northern Governors Forum should all know that killing and bombing Christians will never give power back to northerners.

    People with little minds leave the objects and pursue shadows. It is an overflogged truth that our security outfits are not better than boys scout clubs in some advanced countries. Our rulers compare us to the U.S, U.K etc when they are forcing selfish policies down our throat. They dont ask themselves whether an average security officer in the U.S will behave ours do.
    Go to Dei Dei along Kubwa express road to truly see that the soldiers ther dont even check any vehicles. They jus create a bottleneck that could even be a sweet target for BH. Their aim is to destroy lives and properties. Rows of cars with people inside at these incopentent military road blocks is easy target for them. The commercial vehicles they stop are subjected to unequalled hardship just to extort money from them. Go to Abaji and you will see the same thing happenning. That is why the IED’s and explosives are still easily moved around. I sometimes wonder whether they have something like an infrared device with which they can see IEDs in vehicles, going by the way they just stay on the sidelines watching the vehicles go by.
    Our security system and personnel need a complete overhauling from training to equiping that is devoid of the prevalent corruption.
    GEJ has enormous constitutional powers. My wonder is why is he refusing to use it to quell this BH issue? As weak and daft as BH’s tactics are, it wouldnt have taken the U.S her army to fight endlessly with them. If GEJ is confused about how to, he should go for assistance externally. He shouldnt wait till Christians react before he reacts. He should something serious before something serious happens to Nigeria.

    Hugo Treat every muslim as an individual bc his l her misguided behaviour should NOT be termed as the teaching of the religion to such an extent of insulting the prophet [PBUH]. Truely u are an illiterate christian. There are so many christians armed robers, kidnapers, prostitutes, 419s, oil thieves, liars, political leaders stealing our money etc . No literate muslim will relate such acts to the teaching of christianity, NOT at all talkless of insulting our beloved prophet[alayhi salaam] Isa the son of Mayam [May the blessing of ALLAH be upon her].He who commits sin is on his own and he who performs good deeds certainly abides by the teachings of his religion. pls ask honest, sincere and knowledgeable christ. Any muslim who insult JESUS [May the blessings of ALLAH be upon him] is an unbeliever. Similarly he who insult prophet Muhammad[SAW] will see the consequence including you, unless u repent. Just ask about Salman Rushdi today.

    Nigerian is at the very edge of the cliff. There is no doubt that the authorities are working. However, it is obvious that much more needs to be done. If that much more delays, the country will tip and not many people will be happy about it.
    Although it is everyone’s responsibity to keep the country from tipping, those in authority need to pay more attention so that they can leave good foot marks for posterity.
    Nigeria is going through a transition period. We all know this; but it is costing too much. Selfishness, ignorance and some amount of wickedness are to blame. However, we should not give up. It is the only country we can call ours. More tolerance and selflessness are needed. Everyone should remember that whatever we gather to be ours, either by just or unjust method, we will die and leave them behind. Even if our children and children’s children inherit them, they will also die but the earth remains the Lord’s.
    Therefore let us be wise and careful.
