The Governor of Borno state prof. Babagana Umara Zulum has on Wednesday, visited two hospitals after Boko Haram fighters fired shots from Rocket Propelled Grenades, on which killed 10 residents and 47 injured in Maiduguri, Insidenaija reports.

The shots, on Tuesday night, came from Kaleri, an outskirts of Maiduguri, it was learnt, but grenades traveled to hit Gwange and Adam kolo communities, both densely populated areas in the inner city. Most of the deaths occurred in Gwange. One of the RPG shots, hit a children's play ground in Gwange, it was also gathered.

Governor Zulum confirmed the attacks during his empathy visits to the State Specialist Hospital, and the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital, both in Maiduguri. The governor was told that some of the victims had sustained various degrees of injuries and were being treated, for which he directed that the state ministry of health shoulders the bills.

"Indeed it is a very sad moment for the people and government of Borno state, about 60 persons were affected, among them, 10 have died.

"It was as a result of long distance shots fired by the insurgents. I believe this is a new trend we have to raise up and stop.

"We experienced a similar incident exactly one year ago. The solution is to deploy an appropriate form of technology, which will have to work on.

"I share the pains of all those affected but we are not just visiting hospitals, we do so much behind the scene in our combined responses to the Boko Haram insurgency and we will keep making these and more efforts” Zulum said.

Speaking on military’s regain of Marte, which came under Boko Haram’s occupation a few days ago, Governor Zulum said he was not just pleased but also optimistic that the Nigerian military will work had to retain, continue its peace-building and stability efforts in ways that should ensure the insurgents do not take Marte again, or any part of the state.

"I am optimistic that the insurgents will not take over Marte again” Zulum said.

Miyetti Allah won't react or protest this. Nothern youths on twitter won't trend this with a hashtag. Governors won't visit the site / scene as seen in Ibadan.

The north is truly the problem of the north.

May Allah bless the works of the Jihadist "spreading" the gospel and punishing the infidels. Buhari and the northern governors better send part of the 800m to their , provide them with more AK 47s and rockets propelled grenades to kill more. They are not criminals, just victimized people fighting for God.

Meanwhile, the ESN and Sunday Igboho should be totally destroyed. How can those infidels challenge Bandits kidnapping them and Fulanis invading their land for cattle pasture?
