Alert: Multiple sources are reporting that an attack on Maiduguri may be in the making, this night as over 50 #BokoHaram fighters have converged in Ajilari Kuros, which is approximately 2 kilometres from the city of #Maiduguri.
Update on attacks in #Maiduguri: At dawn today, #Bokoharam fighters infiltrated Maiduguri on foot from the old Molai road, where the CJTF engaged some of them. There were, however bomb blasts close to the Federal High Court and behind CBN Quarters within the metropolis.
These attacks are happening around the Ajilari and Molai axis, areas #Bokoharam fighters have always used as transit zones over the years to assemble fighters from different cells within the group before attacking the city of #Maiduguri.
Ajilari kuros is behind the railway crossing in Gomari Airport, Catapila is south of Ajilari. Instead of the insurgents that converged there two days ago to enter #Maiduguri from Ajilari, they took a long road and turn to Maiduguri through Molai, Polo and Damboa Road.
Today's casualty figures have not been given and as officials continue to scramble to keep this news under wraps to avoid panic, it is important to maintain the increased surveillance in and around #Maiduguri to forestall a major security breach.
