JUST IN!! Buhari visits Maiduguri over killings

The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), is in Maiduguri, Borno State, on a sympathy visit over the latest killings by Boko Haram terrorists.

He landed in Maiduguri at 12:45 pm from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

About 30 travellers were killed in the Sunday attacks in Auno, a location just 25 kilometres to Maiduguri.

Many vehicles were also set ablaze by the insurgents.

The attacks forced the closure of the Maiduguri gate by the military this week.
