Suicide bomb kills 10 in Nigerian mosque
Gamboru, Nigeria 3 Jan (ANA) - At least 10 people have been killed in a suicide bomb attack in a mosque in north-eastern Nigeria. Eyewitnesses say the attacker sneaked into the congregation during morning prayers disguised as a worshipper before detonating the device. No one has claimed responsibility for the attack in Gamboru, a town on the Cameroonian border. Terror group Boko Haram is known to operate in the region. The attack comes less than 24 hours after Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, released a video in which he dismissed the assertions by the Nigerian authorities that the group had been defeated.(ANA)
