A mosque in
Konduga town, about 30 kilometers (almost 19 miles) southeast of Maiduguri, the
capital of Borno State in northern Nigeria was attacked by gunmen killing at
least 44 people.
Twenty-six
worshippers at the mosque were hospitalized at the emergency ward of Maiduguri
Teaching Hospital. A security guard from the Hospital spoke on the terms of
anonymity because they were not allowed to divulge information to reporters.
