News: Just In: Boko Haram bomb beer palour in Mubi, Adamawa

UPDATED:

Extreme Islamist group, Boko Haram, today bombed a bar and brothel located near a major military base in Mubi, Adamawa State. And according to Saharareporters, preliminary reports disclosed that at least sixty people died in the attack at a location popularly known as "Kabang".

Two security sources in the area told SaharaReporters that a horrendous explosion rocked the bar and brothel which usually teems with civilian and military patrons. The explosion happened close to 6 pm
Nigerian time. One of our sources said none of the casualties was a soldier, but the other stated that it was too early to determine whether any of the dead were soldiers.

The bombed facility is a short distance away from the headquarters of the Special Operations Battalion (SOB) of the Nigerian army in Mubi. The battalion is at the center of the Nigerian government's counter-offensive against Boko Haram's increasingly daring attacks on military and civilian targets.

Soldiers based in Mubi frequently join civilians to eat, drink and dance at the watering hole, our sources said, adding that military commanders generally warned soldiers not to stay at the joint past 4 p.m.

In recent weeks, Boko Haram has carried out deadly attacks in the northeast Nigerian states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe despite the Federal Government's declaration of a state of emergency in the 3 states.
