Peace is not something Nigeria has been seeing as it closes out 2015 as the country saw at least 48 people killed in suicide attacks and bombings on December 28 in two cities in the northern region of the country. The attacks came one day after the army fought Boko Haram militants west of Maiduguri.
The Boko Haram has not claimed responsibility for the bombings, however they beartoo much resemblance to previous attacks by the militant group to think that any other group was involved in the blasts.
The first blast on Monday took place at a mosque in a Maiduguri suburb, around 20 people were killed and 91 wounded, said Mohammed Kanar, a local official in the national relief agency NEMA.There was a second attackbut no more details were immediately available.
South of Borno in Madagali in Adamawa state two female suicide bombers blew themselves up at a crowded meat and fish market, killing many people, according to Victor Ezegwu, another army commander. At least 30 people were wounded.
