Gunmen, suspected to be Islamic militants on Sunday killed 44 people who were praying in a mosque in Konduga, about 35 kilometres outside Maiduguri, the Borno State capital.
Although the killing took place on Sunday morning, the Associated Press (AP) quoted security sources as saying the bodies were counted yesterday.
The killing it said, was perpetrated by militants. Along the way from Maiduguri to Konduga, members of Civilian JTF encountered ‘fierce resistance from heavily armed terrorists’, said Usman Musa of the Youth Vigilance Group.
Four people from the civilian group were also killed after responding to calls for help.
It was learnt that the killers wore military uniforms to gain entry into the mosque before carrying out their dastardly act. No group has claimed responsibility yet for the incident but the attack bears similar pattern to those carried out by Islamist organization, Boko Haram.
Now you can belief that muslims are not terrorist or Boko haram, because if they are muslim, I don’t think they can attack other muslim or mosque. But by the grace of God, those who behind the cuttons of this Boko harams shall be fish out one day. R.I.P for the deseased.
Boko Haram long ago ve had series of attempt on mosques nd important muslim personalities in d North, examples of wich were suicide attempt in Kano central mosque, last year killings of muslims worshippers in Yobe,bombing of UN building wich claimed the lives of mosly muslims, foiled attempt on d emir of Kano and lots more. all these are testifying to dia being satanisim not islamists.
This deadly terrorists called Boko Haram could ve been curtail long ago if we xtians and muslims ve handled them as our common enemies, but instead, some muslims were ignorantly backing dia unrealistic ideology of islamize d country while some xtians foolishly based d activities of Boko Haram on Islam.
Nigerians, the earlier we jointly and collectively get rid of BH 4rm our country, d better 4 us!
