Nigeria: Boko Haram islamist group kills three in fresh Maiduguri (Borneo) attack
Suspected members of Boko Haram are behind the killing of three more people at a hospital in Maiduguri, police said on Wednesday.
The three victims, including a senior police officer, were killed Tuesday evening when some armed men fired shots into a teaching hospital in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State. “An investigation has already commenced but I can tell you that we believe the killings must have been carried out by the Boko Haram since it was their mode of operations,” the Borno State police public relations officer said.
Boko Haram said on its website on Tuesday it was behind the Christmas Eve bombings in Jos.
