The military has raised the alarm on a new trend of bombing by members of the Boko Haram sect. They now go from house to house posing as visitors and detonating their bombs to kill innocent citizens. A release by the Army conveyed the message thus:
New Trend By Suicide Bombers Attacking Residence
This is to draw the attention of the general public to recent trend used by desperate remnants of Boko Haram Terrorists (BHT). Recently, two female suicide bombers knocked at the door of one Bulama and Usman about 200 meters apart in Kalari general area of Maiduguri. The daughter of the Bulama opened the door, while the Usman himself opened his own door immediately the suicide bombers detonated their suicide vest, in the process killing the unsuspected little girl, Usman including the two female suicide bombers.
The general public is hereby advised to be cautious and wary of strange persons knocking at their doors. Security is a collective responsibility; the public is to engage in neighborhood watch.
