Multiple Bomb Blasts Hit Maiduguri, People Scamper As Buhari Visits

Gunmen at large, still causing havoc. There were three explosions in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital on Thursday ahead of President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit.

Details of the incidents, which occurred a few hours before Buhari’s visit to the state, are currently sketchy. Residents are in a panic, with many closing their shops and business places.

President Buhari had been scheduled to commission an edifice donated by Mohammed Indimi to the University of Maiduguri.

He is also expected to commission some projects executed by the Borno State Government.
