Residents of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, are currently in panic as multiple bomb explosions suspected to be from the Boko Haram insurgents rocked the city in the early hours of Saturday as Nigerians woke up on election day.
The explosions, about eleven in number, began at around 5:50 am and ended a little around 6am.
According to Premium Times, A police officer, returning home from night duty told its correspondence in Maiduguri that: “we counted 11 of the explosions this morning. But we are unsure where they occurred.”
