Huge suicide blast rocks Nigeria’s mourning ceremony

At least 20 Shia mourners were martyred and many were injured after a huge suicide bomb targeted Shia mourners observing the holy day of Ashura exploded in Yobe state in northeastern Nigeria.

Eye witnesses said that the Boko Haram Wahabi terrorist bomber joined the ceremony in Potiskum town and blew himself up.

The Non-Violence World Organization (Free Muslim) denounced the dirty crime asserting that such crimes, that target Shia Muslims’ religious ceremonies, reflect the deviant thinking of such takfiri groups that turned them into monsters threatening human existence.

The organization blames the Nigerian government for the attack, calling on arresting those behind the attack and punishing them.
