[FOXNEWS] Suicide bombers, some screaming "God is great," killed at least 40 people in two northeastern Nigerian states Wednesday, including kabooms in two mosques, officials and witnesses said. All the bombers died. Earlier, 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... Islamic Hours later, at around 6 a.m. when mosques are filled with the faithful performing early-morning prayers, two women jacket wallahs struck in Damaturu, Yobe state's commercial center. "One of the suicide bombers gained entry into the mosque and detonated explosives and the other bomber was sighted roaming around the compound and (when) asked questions, she too detonated explosives," said resident Ibrahim Musa. In Damaturu, police Assistant Superintendent Toyin Gbagedesin said seven people died. Musa said he counted 15 bodies. There was no immediate way to reconcile the conflicting tolls. Gbagedesin also reported a third attack by two male suicide bombers on a settlement of Fulani herders that he said killed 10 people. At around the same time, two male suicide bombers blew themselves up inside a mosque in Gubio town of neighboring Borno state and killed at least 12 people, according to survivors who asked not to be identified for fear of repercussions. |
