| Suicide bomber attacks market in northeast Nigeria's Maiduguri |
| 2016-12-27 |
| [Ynet] A jacket wallah attacked a cattle market on Monday in Maiduguri in northeastern Nigeria, the city worst hit by Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... 's seven-year insurgency, the police and a witness said. Police said the bomber, who struck the Kasuwan Shanu market in the central district of Kasuwa, was dead but did not give details of any other casualties. A witness said a number of people had been injured. Nobody has grabbed credit for the attack but it bears the hallmarks of Boko Haram and comes days after President Muhammadu Buhari said the jihadist group's key camp in its last remaining enclave had fallen. |
