Nigeria Boko Haram Planned to bomb 5 states

As the nation grapples with the cases of incessant bombings, the increasing notoriety of the outlawed Islamic sect, Boko Haram, there seems to be no end in sight to the loss of lives and property as the sect has finalised

plans to launch further massive attacks in seven states of the federation.

The states, SUNDAY PUNCH gathered, are Bauchi, Niger, Borno, Kaduna, Taraba, Plateau, Benue as well as the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. 

Maiduguri, the Borno State capital and Suleja in Niger State have witnessed in recent times, several explosions in which the sect had claimed responsibility for. 

Just on Friday, a bomb was thrown at some policemen in a patrol vehicle in Maiduguri.

A few hours before the policemen were attacked, soldiers in Abuja had intercepted a truck conveying no fewer than 300 explosives suspected to be bombs.

The fresh plan of the sect to focus on more states came to the fore on June 17, 2011 when the group announced on its website that it would attack Nassarawa, Plateau, Benue, Kaduna, and Taraba after its commandos arrived from Somalia where they trained in the acts of terrorism.
