Boko Haram threatens to bomb Nigerian capital

‘The Boko Haram Takfiri terrorist group has reportedly threatened to launch bomb attacks against the Nigerian capital Abuja.
In a video obtained by Sahara Reporters, a US-based journalism website, a man calling himself a Boko Haram militant said “more bomb attacks are on the way, including Abuja.”
On May 3, civilian and security sources in Nigeria claimed that Abubakar Shekau, the terror group’s ringleader, had sustained injuries less than a week earlier when Nigerian Air Force warplanes bombarded a gathering of militants in Balla village in the northeastern province of Borno.
Boko Haram is predominantly active in the restive Borno province, its birthplace, and the capital is almost beyond its reach. However, Nigeria’s Department of State Services, the country’s state security agency, announced in April that it had foiled plans by the terror group to assault the UK and US embassies in Abuja.’
