Nigeria's Boko Haram puts Maiduguri under 'siege'
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-29155529
"Nigeria's militant Islamists have "completely surrounded" Maiduguri, the main city in north-eastern Borno state, traditional elders have warned.
The military needed to "fortify" the city, which had a population of more than two million, to prevent an assault "from all directions", they said.
The Boko Haram militants had "annexed" areas that were about 50km (30 miles) from Maiduguri, they said. ...."
2 million is a lot of folks. Blood will run deep if they take the city.
Of course this has nothing to do with Islam.
