A dying victim of Boko Haram bomb blast in Taraba State yesterday had just one request to NEMA officials attending to him: "Please, don’t let me die, do everything possible to save me" But as fate had its way, the man died at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Jalingo before help could reach him.
That was the pathetic fall-out from the attack by the Islamist sect in Jalingo which claimed many lives with scores injured. This is coming barely 24 hours after Boko Haram struck at churches within the Bayero University, Kano (BUK) when two profssors and many other worshipers were killed. Numerous people were injured in the attack.
Until yesterday, Taraba remained the only state in the North East that had experienced relative peace since the beginning of the Islamic sect’s uprising in the North, but the early morning bomb explosion changed the situation.
