Many people are feared dead after suspected Boko Haram members attempted to attack Maiduguri, the Borno state capital, yesterday evening. According to some residents, the sect members detonated about three bombs and attempted to take over the newly constructed Customs House where IDPs from Mafa LGA are being camped.

They were however resisted by the soldiers stationed at the camp as well as members of the state Civilian Joint Taskforce.
