A bomb concealed in a red Volkswagen golf car one went off this afternoon July 23rd along Alkali road which leads to the popular Murtala Square in Central Kaduna killing at least 15 people.

According to eyewitnesses, the bomb went off as a prominent Islamic cleric, Sheikh Dahiru Bauchi, drove past the road. They believe the bomb was target at his convoy but according to witnesses, the cleric escaped unhurt while passersby were killed. At least 25 bodies have so far been receovered

Other witnesses said the bomb was targeted at thousands of Muslims who gathered at the Murtala Square for Ramadan Tafsir under the leadership of Sheikh Bauchi. (pictured above)

The cleric is said to be an outspoken critic of Boko Haram and was on his way to the Murtala Square when the bomb went off.

      Before one Islamic Fella will come here and ask: If Bokoharam are Muslims, then why are they Killing Muslims and christians? You may also want to ask: Why are Sunni Muslims killing Shia Muslims in the Middle-East?

      According to Quran, Muslims are commanded to kill the INFIDELS(un-believers), so the Sunnis call the Shia un-believers and vice-versa. That's why they are killing themselves in the Middle East and everywhere all round the world. Islam is a Blood Thirsty Terrorist Religion! With Islam, there can never be Peace in this World!
      Read the Quaranic book of Surah.

      I just pray this Country divides peacefully so that the North(Northern Muslims) can have their Islamic state and do as they so desire.
