A car bomb has exploded in Maiduguri, and there are fears of many casualties, the BBC reports. The incident occurred today around 1pm outside the state television offices.
Blood-spattered people were seen fleeing and vehicles crashed into each other, while soldiers fired automatic weapons. A suicide bomber is suspected of being behind the blast, reportedly near a market.
The military confirmed to the BBC that an explosion had occurred, but did not give a figure for casualties. An eyewitness said he had seen what appeared to be dead bodies on the ground. A second car is reported to have been set on fire by the blast

Is dat a state or country!!I hv never heard dat name maiduguri bfor!!or is it a maid in uguri kingdom#
So so sad, boko haram has nothing to do wt APC or hatred for GEJ as people often speculate. They are just blood thirsty terrorist period.
Boko haram is an offshoot of years of bad or lack of governance, if our monies hv bn put to gud use by previous & present govmt, we wouldn't be facing this today. They refuse to gv good & free education 2d people, no job for the youths, no infasructure, they can't even fortify our borders. Yet they send their children to school abroad, build private school that poor cannot attend, steal billions wt impunity, aid & abait corruption, d list is endless. I am not in any way justifying d senseless killings by boko haram, its our leaders that makes Nigeria a fatile field for them to carry out their evil act.
This nonsense will continue until something urgent is done. Since they are making gud governance & restructuring of d country impossible, revolution is inevitatble.
Boko haram is one of the many ways Nigerians are being wasted. As long as there acute poverty in d midst of plenty, if corruption is not curbed, if there is no justics & fairness, am afraid this insecurity we are facing now may linger longer than we expect.
To think I'll be going back to school there....*sigh*...
God help Nigeria! Enough of all this bloodshed!
This new year,God pls help our country and bring all d perpetrators to book
Are this sect really muslims? Bombing even on their own festive celebration day..killing their fellow muslims..then what the hell are they fighting for??..Na God go purnish all of them
Father Lord take control
ma own candid opinion: dash maidugiri out to these people,we can do wt 35 states in Nigeria Abi!
God pls visit these blood thirsty individuals so that they knw you are who you are.
Lolz...this is no longer news in 9ja nah.....2015 I dey laugh some people oo
God pls come n intervene in our dear country.
Almighty God help our dear beloved nation Nigeria and its inhabitants from d hands of evil doers/seekers.
