Islamist Boko Haram militants disguised as preachers have killed at least 24 people and wounded several others in an attack near a mosque in northeast Nigeria’s Borno state, Reuters reports.
According to a military source and witnesses the attackers arrived in cars late on Sunday and gathered people to a mosque in the remote village of Kwajafa, pretending to preach Islam.
They then opened fire on them, witness Simeon Buba said.
The Nigerian military is on a clampdown on the militants and is still reclaiming Northeastern Nigeria from them.
