As if the damage caused by Boko Haram to the Internally Displaced People of Borno isn’t enough trauma, the Nigerian Airforce claimed to have ‘accidentally’ bombed an IDP camp in Rann, Borno state on January 17.

This unfortunate news stirred an understandable amount of rage from Nigerians on Twitter:

Nigerians are demanding an explanation for this terrible mistake.

After suffering so much, these people still got bombed by their own government.

Instead of them to mistakenly bring an end to the Boko Haram terrorists…

…Or kuku mistakenly fix our half-broken economy.

Na wa for this country o!

The President ought to personally address those affected by this bombing.

We just hope Nigeria doesn’t mistakenly kill us sha.

The Nigerian government must do a lot more than releasing statements and tweets.

People must also be held accountable for this grievous mistake.

May the souls of the departed rest in peace.
