The latest headline from Boko Haram. This time they were not able to murder in the name of Allah, and the jihadist lies dead on the ground next to the IED-packed car. Note that the bomb targeted a symbol of non-Muslim authority; State Police Headquarters. The spread of sharia and the imposition of Islam is hindered by those in power, thus the police are, and will constantly be in the jihad cross-hairs.
More to come, stay tuned...

Boko Haram: Suicide Bomber Killed In Maiduguri
How's the virgins?
A 25-year-old suicide bomber was yesterday shot dead by the police when he rammed the vehicle he was driving into the gate of the state police headquarters in Maiduguri, Borno State and headed straight for the main building in an attempt to bomb it.
The suicide bomber was suspected to be a member of the Boko Haram sect in the state.
Confirming the incident to journalists during a press briefing at the state police headquarters, Maiduguri, the commissioner of police, Borno State Command, Mr. Simeon Midenda, said that sometime last week, his command received a threat text message, that the police cadet officers screening exercise slated for yesterday would be disrupted by a faceless group.
He said the development prompted him to beef up security around the police headquarters and other formations.
Narrating the incident, Midenda explained that at about 12:15pm, the suicide bomber crashed through the gate of the police headquarters in a Honda Accord saloon car with registration number AP 851 ABJ, and headed for the main building with the intention of detonating bombs close to his office.
However, before the bomber could carry out his plan, armed policemen on guard within the premises opened fire on him. He further said, “On reaching the vehicle, our men discovered that the boot was loaded with gas cylinders containing explosives connected with wires ready for detonation.”
The commissioner said that the bomb disposal unit was promptly drafted to the scene, where, he claimed, they successfully incapacitated the improvised explosive devices (IED).
Our correspondent also gathered that items recovered from the car included six 13.6kg gas cylinders, each connected with wires; one air conditioner gas cylinder; two 25 litre jerry cans of fuel; one tin of Abro, five-litre volume and one Acid Orange drum of 28kg weight.
The CP said no written documents were recovered, saying that investigations had begun in earnest to unravel those behind the dastardly act.
Anything on the motivation or driving force behind this attack, or are we just looking for a body to hand? Will we hear that Islamic doctrine and sharia are behind this? History says no, we will not.
Round up the usual suspects.
