Nigeria: Scores Dead After Muslims Detonate Massive Bomb Near Shopping Mall


“[O]ur religion and our way of worship is nothing but killings, killings and killings! … By Allah, I will kill you. Killing is my job. Let’s kill them all” – Islamist Leader of Boko Haram

Qur’an Sura 9:5, “… fight and slay the Pagans [non-Muslims] wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war) …”

By Bashir Adigun, The Star – “An explosion blamed on Islamic extremists rocked a shopping mall in Nigeria’s capital on Wednesday and police said at least 21 people have been killed.

The blast in Abuja came as Nigerians were preparing to watch their country’s Super Eagles play Argentina at the World Cup in Brazil. Many shops at the mall have TV screens, but it was unclear if the explosion was timed to coincide with the match, which started an hour later.

Witnesses said body parts were scattered around the exit to Emab Plaza, in Abuja’s upscale Wuse 2 suburb. All spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.

Billows of black smoke could be seen from a kilometre away.

‘I heard the explosion and (felt) the building shaking,’ said Shuaibu Baba. He said he rushed downstairs to find that the driver who had dropped him a few minutes earlier was dead. ‘I asked the driver to come with me, and he said ‘No,’ he would wait for me in the car.’

Police Superintendent Frank Mba said 17 people were wounded and 21 bodies were recovered.

He also said one suspect has been arrested and investigations have already started.

The government urged calm and said it is doing everything possible ‘to check the activities of insurgents.’

One witness said he thought the bomb was dropped at the entrance to the mall by a motorcyclist, but Mba said it was too early to say.

It is the latest in a series of violent attacks blamed on Islamic extremists. Nigerian security forces appear incapable of curtailing the near-daily attacks concentrated in the northeast, where Boko Haram extremists have their stronghold.” Read more.

Qur’an: Sura 4:89, “Have no unbelieving friends. Kill the unbelievers [non-Muslims] wherever you find them.”

Flashback: Nigeria: ‘Islamic Warrior’ Delighted In Chopping Off Heads, Says Islamic Agenda Is To Force Worship Of Allah, Wipe Out Christians – “Ask him and he bluntly tells you, ‘If we ask our victim, ‘Will you become a Muslim or not and he or she refuses, we will slaughter him like a goat…’ He talked of himself as an Islamic warrior who take delight in chopping off people’s head with a stroke of his dagger… ‘You people have only been hearing of Boko Haram, but there are other deadly Islamic groups who are also part of Boko Haram sect … Whenever we heard that any of the sects were fighting Christians, we would always join them …” Read more.

    Islam is a runaway mad train on a one way track to a bottomless pit into endless death getting what they give.

    I wonder how the Nigerian Government likes this new plan of action the Boko Haram is taking as some of the fatalities must surely be friends of government officials?
